Default What products get you suspended/banned

I just got my seller account suspended a few weeks ago, but I was wondering what kinds of listings got other people on here banned or flagged. If you manage to get your account reinstated, do you now have to avoid certain products b/c they are too liable to trigger a suspension?

A nurofen baby medicine dosing syringe - made from plastic no needles etc... really handy item - buyers loved it and left according feedback.

However eb thought it was no good - I feel it was because of 'syringe' and 'nurofen' in title. When I originally listed, on the last page before submit item, a big red triangle warning with text came up saying this that and the other. In past, I have had the orange triangle with warning text, but this red one is more serious.

I learnt from this that if you get the orange triangle, you can go ahead and list a good few, but if a red triangle comes, for me, I wont list the item.... if I do, it would be on a short 3 or 5 day lising.

I tried about 5 different times over a period of about 6 years to sell a Penthouse magazine with Vanessa Williams and George Burns on the cover and could never understand why it kept getting taken off. I figured Vanessa must have some pull with eBay. It wasn't until the last time that eBay told me that the centerfold was under 18 years old when she posed for the spread (pun intended). I had no clue until then. They threatened to close my account if I tried to sell it again. That's not the reason I came here today but not knowing my product could have lost me my account.

it was only a $3,400 car and yea they paid through paypal. They sent a friend to inspect the car before the auction ended. Got limited right after the auction ended, my guess it was a new account.
