    My advice would be to not get bent out of shape about it. If you get
    confrontational and they take offense it may escalate into a feud.
    That's bad business. 

    Have you suffered a loss or damage from it? No, not as yet. I mean
    what really happened? Someone took photos of merchandise in a place
    open to the public. Any purpose one might imagine would be purely
    conjecture at this point. 

    If you have an attorney I might ask her/him what your options are in
    the event they do something nastier. But remember that enforcing your
    rights costs money and energy. If they knock off a piece or two, your
    damages wouldn't really justify a lot of legal expense. If they use
    the pics for some other, nefarious purpose then you'd have to look
    more closely at it. 

    Keep this incident in mind and proportion. Before you take any
    action, weigh the costs and benefits dispassionately.
