@downsie
Thanks for link

It's very sad but it's not first time that my themes are for sale. But sadest was when I saw my stolen themes here, on esato and I didn't know whom to ask for removing
You told me that 2 of my themes are among others. I can't check it, but if you have that collection you can check it. Almost all my themes has creator name in the file and links to my homesites on lasyk (older) and mobile9 (newer). If I want to report it on ebay, do I have to be registred?

I agree - it's bad when leeched themes are uploaded by folk as their own work. It's not as bad as when folk try to sell them though.
Yes. You need to be registered on eBay. It only takes a few minutes. Then go to their VeRO page
http://pages.ebay.co.uk/vero/index.html?_trksid=m40
If you click on the FREE button at the bottom of this page,
http://rapidshare.com/files/67278957/se_themes.zip you can download the file containing the themes.
They insist that only the owner of the intellectual property can submit a complaint. There is a form which they ask to be signed and faxed to them
http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/community/copyright-infringement.pdf
Sounds like a nightmare but I'm sure it's not as time consuming as writing a theme, which someone else wants to sell as their own property!
I didn't do a full search of the themes pack because it can only be done manually. In the time I had available I found the two that I mentioned earlier,
http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/24721/
http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/24397/
Those two should be sufficient evidence for eBay.

@downsie
There are not 7, there are 9 themes of mine

. I opened form, but I don't understand that legal thing so good, not even on my language

. I don't know what option to put, and I certanly wouldn't like to give theme my real name and address. Beside I don't have a fax. I can pretedent that I don't know for that form and I can give them link to my files and maybe to offer theme psd files. Maybe that will be enough. What do you think?
btw, I found Pat's, jdj's, rush's (from lasyk), zj's themes too.

I think if you contact eBay and explain the language difficuties, they should be helpful... I hope.
I wouldn't worry too much about giving eBay your real name etc.
For all their faults (and there are many!), they are a very responsible organisation and their privacy policy is 100% trustworthy.
@ all themers.
I am now thinking that the best way forward is for effected themers to contact THE SELLER.
If enough people complain to him, he will start to worry more.
Go the the eBay link at the start of this thread then click CONTACT SELLER and send him your message. Be polite.
Remember ... You can either have a good fight or a good result ... seldom both.

By the way, I felt a bit miffed that none of my themes were included.
A bit like when my house was burgled and they didn't take any of my music CDs ! Haa haaaa haaaaaa.
