Right now, the KG file isn't even accessible through current eBay auctions, so it isn't you.
If I had to guess, I'd say Topps is probably sick and tired of people grabbing and using their images for all manner of things (there are multiple custom card makers selling their wares on eBay now--using Topps Vault images and Topps designs). So I'd guess they are trying to figure out a way to still provide images on their sale listings without leaving them open to discovery and preview by tenacious computer geeks. But that's just a guess on my part because its probably what I would do under similar circumstances. You might have to get used to just getting the images as they're posted to eBay (until they figure out a way to lock you out of those, too...which is certainly doable). Think of it like Jack and the Beanstalk. Maybe the giant wouldn't have minded if Jack took one golden egg and went on his way. But Jack got greedy.
Or maybe they just ran out of cloud space and are removing all the older files.
I tend to be a pessimist, but who knows.
