The Complete Ebay Logo Rip-Off!

My wife and I went over to a shopping plaza called Crown Bay to try out the new BBQ place called Jumbies (excellent by the way) when we stumbled on this brand new store called “Cbay“.

What a creative name and logo I mumbled to myself. It’s almost like I’ve seen it before. Hmmmm, as I ponder through my mental rolodex. I got it! I proclaimed out loud…

Ebay – Cbay, how ingenious these smart (and I’m using that very sarcastically) business people are. I can see the big strategy meeting now…

Hey I love Ebay…

If only we could come up with a name like it.

Hey what rhymes with Ebay? Or wait better yet make it Crown Bay, Ebay-ish…

Abay, nah…Bbay, nah, Cbay? Holy cow…C for Crown and Bay for, um..er Bay. The quest has ended!

So there you have it. A completely ripped off logo from Ebay. What do you think blog readers? Is it cool to rip off a logo like this? Don’t hold back, tell me how you really feel.

    Copy cat business does not mean not good at least u remember cbay ,their intention is to let people remember their name and attract customers to go in.

    It’s amazing that these people are okay with ripping off a famous logo. I bet if they had hired a designer to make their logo, and later witnessed another business rip it off and use it as their own, they would be calling their lawyer and raising hell.
