Yes, the GB User Agreement at Section III, 4. asserts that the pics become their property. However, I'd argue, "fair use," a legal principle that portions of copyrighted materials may be used without permission of the copyright owner provided that the use is fair and reasonable, does not substantially impair the value of the materials,
and does not curtail the profits reasonably expected by the owner. You're not looking to make money off the image once the auction is complete.
Indeed, the argument could be made that posting the pic is an advantage to GB, because it advertises them as a viable venue where "the product" may be obtained.
