"Attention: Notification of Product Removal‏"
 

Is this bad? I havent sold this item in 8 months. I deleted the listing. Is this just a warning? They make it sound scary like I did something wrong....

doesnt seem bad. recall.. something wrong with it and amazon found out and removed the listing

In a way a safeguard for seller & therefore amazon.

No faulty item being sold so reduces refund issues etc.

Slightly OT, but in Australia at the moment, there's a growing campaign to stop the selling of those cheap/foo-foo chargers.

Sadly there have been deaths and house fires as a result of their usage.

Recalls are a safety measure and essential.

Unfortunately, many third party chargers are perfectly fine, but some of those bottom rung cheapo ones carry real risks.

Should I contact Amazon and let them know I havent sold this item in months?

Re: "Attention: Notification of Product Removal‏"
 

Doesn't matter, they already know anyway.
