MC019 eBay Listing Removed: Trademark Violation - Unauthorised Item
Dear ******(*****@gmail.com),
Thank you for your recent listing on eBay. Unfortunately, we removed the following item(s):
##########
The rights owner or an agent authorized to act on behalf of the rights owner, @@@, @@@ Companies, notified eBay that this listing violates intellectual property rights. When eBay receives a report of this type of violation, we remove the listing to comply with the law.
Our concerns included:
Your item was removed because of a request we received from VeRO member @@@, @@@ Companies asking us to remove the item for:
Item is a counterfeit product which infringes the trademark owner's rights.
For more information on why your item was removed, you should:
- Contact the VeRO member directly at @@@@.com with your questions or concerns.
- Although most VeRO participants are willing to respond to polite email, please know that they aren?t obligated to reply.
- If after 7 days you don't receive a response from the VeRO member, please contact eBay by simply replying to this email.
The following information may help explain the reason for your listing(s) removal:
Trademark infringement is unlawful and violates eBay's policies. A trademark is a unique sign (such as a name, word, phrase, logo, or symbol) that a company uses to identify its products and/or services.
Using another company's trademark in a way that may confuse buyers about the source of goods or services, or confuses buyers into believing that the seller is affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by the trademark owner is both illegal and against eBay's policies. Examples include counterfeits, unauthorised replica items and items that bear the brand or logo of a company without that company's permission.
Guideline: If the product you are listing bears the brand or logo of a company, but it wasn't made or authorised by that company, don't sell it on eBay. The sale of counterfeits and unauthorised replicas of branded products is unlawful and not permitted on eBay.
