"Notice: Policy Warning" E-Mail from Amazon
 

Hi all,

Received an e-mail this morning from Amazon and have been praying that it's an April Fool's joke.

Here it is:

We are writing to let you know the following of your listings have been cancelled:

ASIN: B001MS7JDK, Title: Beats by Dr. Dre Tour High-Resolution In-Ear Headphones from Monster

We took this action because the item(s) may be in violation of our Policies which prohibits the sale of unauthorized replicas of trademarked merchandise.

As stated in our Policies, the sale of unauthorized replicas, pirated, counterfeit, and knock-off merchandise is not permitted on Amazon.com.

To avoid the blocking of your selling account, please refrain from selling replica merchandise on our site.

Thank you for your cooperation and your interest in Amazon.com.


So on that note, they didn't "block" my other Beats headphones listings, which baffles me. They took action on 2 that had already sold a week or so ago.

I have moved on to another type of headphones, as Beats have become awfully saturated.

Any recommendations for the future?

Thanks!

Recommendation? You seem to have a grasp of what's going on - not really an April Fools' joke I would say.

Consider yourself lucky that you were not banned right away.

Frankly, I am a bit peeved that Am az on recently kicked an account of mine out for no particular reason when your kind of sales stay up ha but whatever that's my own issue.

It could be that I didn't just sell Beats headphones. I sold a textbook and some random other Nintendo stuff I had lying around.

I'm sorry to hear about your story. I have just recently started getting into the business of selling stuff from China and what not.

As of this time, I'm still under review, so I'm trying to lay low.
