How can I avoid key description word listings from being pulled
 

Whenever i try and list anything in the item description
that is close to the mark, ie, mention sex, gay or anything
along those lines then the listing never appears.

Is there a way around this so the bots don't spot it
but still get my listing displayed without getting blocked ?

Many thanks

Use pictures as text in the description.

Sorry i meant in the item title and subtitle before the description

Do the ebay "Bots" ignore subtitles in searches for Vero items?

No more. Since last year parameters changed

OK..I will bite. What are you selling that requires you to list Gay or Sex in the title?

how can i use pic in the text how does that work. i put up 3 vero items last night late .on 3 diff ebay accounts and they were all taken down and i spelled it wrong all so , how can i get around this ,please help some one

I noticed on the eBay boards that someone had the words SUPER and VERY in the listing title, but with no space in between so that it read SUPERVERY. They couldn't figure out why it wouldn't list... until someone pointed out that the bot was probably seeing PERVE and blocking. :yar:

Uh, how would list "Sex in the City" DVDs? Or a book about the Gay Rights movement? Is eBay really so phobic?

They use eBays own description for Sex and the City. That grants them posting options.

Here is another word that will get you listing pulled due to verbiage:
Coat Hangers

The eBay bots see the word "Hanger" and it sets off internal flags in the eBay system.
The system is programed to grab ALL listings that have the word" Hanger" in the title.
You are asking yourself... WHY????

Military, airlines, airplanes HANGER

I got this straight from a eBay rep.
