Woud like an advise about MC999 eBay policy violation alert

[tilpatin]

I received MC999 for three listings. Here it is:

To ensure sellers consistently provide a high level of buyer satisfaction, we monitor the site for listings that are likely to result in eBay Money Back Guarantee cases. When we review these types of listings, we look at criteria such as a listing’s images, the accuracy of the title and description, and other factors that may lead a buyer to be unhappy with their purchase.

Unfortunately, the items mentioned further below met these criteria and were ended. We took this action to help you avoid a negative buyer experience that could affect your account standing.

While these items are no longer available for buyers to purchase, they can be found in the "Unsold" folder in your My eBay. If your listing was multi-quantity with successful buyers, the item will be in the "Sold" folder instead.


Please review your listings for areas that can be improved. For example, make sure your listings have:

-a clear description

-great photos

-an accurate title

If the issue can't be fixed (item is out of stock, etc.), please don't relist the item.

Three other running listings were unaffected. This account is 2 months old and has 7 positives. I've waited for 30 days before listing. During these 30 days I browsed extensively and bought several items.

Account itself is not suspended. I was able to list two more items (used books) today to meet monthly limit, which is 10 items.

My questions is:

1. What could be the reason for eBay to cancel these listings?

2. Should I go back to listing exclusively "Used" items for the next month or so?
Any and all input would be very much appreciated!

Well, you've got to tell us what the items were that got removed?

[tilpatin]

Of course.

1. Set of flat washers. 2. Set of 40 Security Envelopes by Mead. 3. Waxman Furniture Felt Blankets.

Just do a little research on eBay and see whether sellers dealing with items are having -Ve feedbacks.

[tilpatin]

I see, thank you. I researched for pricing, descriptions, good titles before creating listings but did not look at feedbacks for sellers with same items.

Always keep in mind that even for existing sellers, eB can go 90 days in the past to pull listings.

[tilpatin]

Thank you. I was thinking that perhaps eB pulled these listings due to mentioning of brand names such as Mead and Waxman but I could not account for generic flat washers. Now I understand that it might have been -Ve feedback related and even something that happened 90 days ago to another seller's listing might affect me.

I was wondering if I should leave this eB account to cool off for a month and not list anything until August. Or if I can still list used books to develop selling history and gather feedbacks?
