I work at a movie theater and I decided to put some Movie Posters on ebay when I found out we wouldn't be showing the film. They all sold on Monday and today I received this:

The items completely disappeared from my page even though they had ended and been paid for but I was able to refund them through paypal. One other item that ended Monday for the film was paid for and shipped but I did not receive a notice for that one.
This is my first vero problem I have had though I have sold other movie posters in the past and even some other movie title ones. I'm freaking out a little bit. Is Fox going to sue me or something? I took the vero tutorial ebay recommended and it didn't help at all. I'm not just worried about losing my ebay account but my job as well. Any info on what to do would me much appreciated.
MC999 for 4 movie posters. Freaking out!
