Has anyone gotten a response from Trust and Safety? I was told by ebay live help to wait 72 hours then if they had not contacted me to get back with ebay live help, but I just think I'll wait. I don't want them to restrict me further.

Here is what happened to me just 4 days ago: after 3 months of not selling anything, I decided to put up for auction few rare Vintage Chanel handbags and some other designer items from my own collection. I listed a pair of Designer shoes first, than the Chanel handbag...and, Oh my God! Here is the window pop up flashing Warning!!! "Are you trying to sell the counterfiet....It's illegal.....etc. You better have a gurantee card or proof of purchase, as your auction will be flaged and if found to be a fake, your account will be suspended!" Wow!!!! Threat, after threat.... And ALL of my items are truly authentic! I took detailed pictures of everything, including Hologram-Gurantee Card numbers etc..and even mentioned a link to website for potential buyers to go and authenticate if in doubt. I know my items are authentic, so I pressed the button with a shaky hand and listed the bag risking to be suspended. I was trying to list another different Chanel handbag, but Ebay window poped up saying I can not list this item for another 30 days...So, even though I aplaud Ebay and their efforts to eliminate counterfits, they should not be threathining like this or limiting how much people can sell. Perhaps Ebay should hire knowledgable people (how about VERO?) for each Designer line where sellers can have their "auctions" pre-approved before listing them? The expence of something like this sure bits $63 mil fine they may need to pay and lost listing revenue from honest sellers.
FYI, my auctions are still on, but I live in fear ...Is that what Ebay is all about? Sell or not sell, I keep my fingers crossed not to get account suspended.

I finally got a response from ebay about the limit placed on my account almost a month ago now. It is beyond me how this person responding thinks I am referring to bidding on items!

My e-mail to ebay:
Message: I have a limit placed on my account and would like to know what
I have to do to get it lifted?
Thank you

ebays response:
Thank you for writing eBay in regard to selling limits while trying to
list items.

I reviewed your account and noticed that you have not left feedbacks for
28 items. If you have completed the transaction, then you can leave
feedback for the items. After that you can also request the sellers to
leave feedback for you. Once you have received positive feedback for the
transaction, you will be able to bid on more items again.

I recommend that you email your trading partner and ask him or her to
leave Feedback for you. If you've already left Feedback, be sure to
mention that fact.

To send an email to your trading partner:

1. Go to your Item page and click the member's User ID. You may be asked
to sign in.

2. Write your message in the space provided and click the "Send" button.

Once you have left and got sufficient feedbacks, you should be able to
list more items on eBay.

It is my pleasure to assist you. Thank you for choosing eBay.

What?????

badebay · 07-13-2008, 02:17 PM

tiredofebay. that just proves what a load of crap they speak. ebay speak with fork tongue. never heard such nonsense,, what the hell has your missed feedback got to do with luxury goods. ???? and your ability to list. unless there is a genuine link between your ( or anybodies feedback ) and cliking on list your item... cant believe that !!

diecastfan · 07-13-2008, 07:52 PM

Saw on a post that ebay will remove your auctions if you have some sort of luxury or branded goods.

I am looking at selling the following...

Collectibles, Toys and Hobbies.

Are there certain brands I should not list?

Also, I was selling Die-Cast before will it be a problem for me to do that still when I get back on?

Thank You

Lyda · 07-17-2008, 06:27 PM

Hi again, My 2 authentic items did not sell with BIN, but at least the listings were not removed. Can I relist those two even though Ebay said I could not list (the third item..and which I didn't for 30 days). I know I can't list that item, but can I relist those two that were allowed but not sold? Please help, as I don't want to relist and than get my listings removed or even worse , suspended. Thanks in advance!

becca073 · 07-30-2008, 05:02 PM

I wrote about my one account to eBay like I was told and like others have mentioned have happened, my 30 days went up to 90 days before it will be reviewed again. Oh well as this is a baby account anyway so I don't mind. I can list other items, just not certain brand names.
