Sadly, you'll get more response talking to a brick wall.

When was the last time you heard Ebay filed lawsuits against VERO members for falsely accusing Ebay members and damaging their members business?

Ebay is in it for themselves and to cover their ass from liability. Even though for 13 years they claimed they were only a venue and were not responsible for anything on their site.

If some sellers get the short end of the stick from this raw deal...well...too bad according to Ebay Legal. Sue us if you don't like it!

VERO - What specific item you sold has taken you down?
 

Hey, Let's start a bit of a list of what people have actualy been caught by vero selling on ebay, if possible include the name who warned you:-

I'll start:-

GHD Hair Straightners (Jemella Ltd)

Rolex USA--Rolex memorobila --(Rolex USA /NY)-
Appealed/Won-Listings Reinstated.

peg perego-baby strollers. also i had accounts taken down for selling legitimate laptops (new and refurb) from tigerdirect and selling to europe b/c their prices are much higher than in the us

Anyone had problems with headphones and microphones?

I just listed over 50 VERO items back to back
 

I usually only list about 10 items per day...IF ebay lets me without giving me the seller limit message. It wasn't giving it so I slowly started listed 12 per day. Then I went to 15. I figured my account would be suspended soon because I sell only VERO items and I usually always get suspended around the end of the 2nd month. So I started listing as much as possible tonight and I've listed over 50 listings of this item tonight. I've never scene this even be allowed for me before specially with the brand I'm selling. It's definitely weird. I don't know if the system's easing up with seller limits but I'm happy right now.

Give it another 12-15 hours and your account will be dead. :D

Yeah I was thinking that too. I really wouldn't even be upset...I have over $1000 in ebay fees on that account and I wouldn't mind abandoning the account knowing I took the $1000 as extra profit

Ain't it sweet!

OMB:
Im very surprised you even got past the listing phase without a restriction/ signal .

You must:

a.) be listing non threatening vero items?
b.) have verified paypal linked to that acct

Actually--even with a linked pp acct and a 11 yr old ebay acct- i could only get like 4-6 Veros, i.,e. Rolex items, UNTIL I BUILD TRUST AT THAT LEVEL for a certain amt of months--then go alittle higher--
BUT 50----

You are extremely lucky... :)
hope they are 3 day auctions--so you can at least close them and get your money??

Sorry your suspension is taking so long, but I haven't found and reported your listings yet. Hang in there, though. It's coming!

I doubt it...I know some people who list 100 auctions..and the never get verod

lol ya ya....but I'm still not suspended yet.
Yeah this is the weirdest thing ever because I'm selling a very obvious VERO brand and these items always get the seller limit message. The most I have ever listed in a day before this month was 9 items before getting that message. And yes I have the linked verified paypal but who doesn't lol. I listed them for 5 day listings because I just never take a chance with 3 day listings for VERO. Anyways...I know I've done something crazy when ebayhateluv is impressed lol

Wow bud you lucky that you didn't get your auctions pulled within a couple of hours. Hope you can close some of the auctions and make some money and then just go ahead and can the account don't make ebay a $1,000 richer! :)

Yeah I just hope the ebay account lasts for at least another day. The weird thing for me is that my ebay and paypal accounts never go down at the same time. My ebay account usually gets suspended and nothing happens to the attached paypal. And usually when my Paypal gets limited nothing happens to the ebay account.

Bro with me it is opposite. When my paypal gets limited my ebay account goes down. I guess its because the paypal account was linked to the ebay account. Do you link your paypal and ebay account or no?

For some funny reason, when eBay kills my accounts here in Japan, my PayPal accounts stay up. I then suck out all the money and leave :D

I don't usually go in and manually link the account. When I say I link them, I mean I use the paypal account with ebay and they're basically linked as far as ebay and paypal are concerned.. But yeah I don't usually use Paypal as my automatic payment or anything. I don't actually go in and link them. At least not most of the time.

LOL imjustme...I do the same.

Also, I just wanna add that even though they aren't 3 day auctions they're all Buy It Now items that I list. So I'm pretty sure some of them will close so I can pull the money out before they suspend me.

wish you the best brother :)

I listed a whole bunch again today. I'm almost wanting to stop selling on this account completely to save it. Do you guys think it'll help my account last any longer? Or is it best to just keep listing like this until they suspend me? It's an account from January.

Are you TRYING to get it suspended?

Ebay is unpredictable...you could stop selling on for 2 months and wake up 1 day and its suspended for violating the spirit of ebay. I'v been suspended and I didn't have any auctions up before. That just let's me know the whole suspension thing is random..if they don't get u today they will get you tomorrow..or 8 months from now especially for Vero items, my suggestion is this...if u sell vero items..create as many accounts as u can, and just milk it when 1 account goes down use another.

If your really trying to get suspended then why not just list like piece cheese for $1,000,000 I'm sure they'll suspend you then.

Hi, there. I’m new here and need some serious advice!!!

I have three IDs:

One only for buying with 30 feedbacks 100% score about 1 year old
Two selling IDs with stores: both 100% feedback scores: one 600+ feedbacks 8 year old (but started selling only one and half years ago) and the other with 60+ feedback 6 month old.

My second selling ID (6 month ago) just got suspended this afternoon for a minimum of 7 days for Item is significantly misrepresented policy.

For that account, I only sell one kind of widgets: pinback buttons (movies, music band/singer, cartoons, etc: very normal for pinback button items). To my knowledge, the description is true and accurate. FYI, 6 of my items were pulled off a week ago for Trademark Violation-Unauthorized Item. In reality, it was only 3 items (3 in store and 3 in auction listing). I took the tutorial and went about my business. I didn’t relist those items even thou there are other sellers selling the same/similar buttons.

This afternoon, I got an eBay notice for Listing Removed Item is significantly misrepresented for one single item (MC019, to be precise, it was New Kids On the Block Pinback Button Set) then immediate another same notice for all my items (MC019, 100+ items). And right away my account was suspended (MC062).

I don’t quite understand where and how I misrepresented my button items. They all have the same generic but very appropriate description (I will put my description for you to see at the end of this post).

I’ve sent messaged to Trust and Safety and only got automated replies so far. This is my first suspension and I feel like this is due to some competitor reporting me out of jealous: I’ve only been selling pinback buttons little more than one month and managed to sell 80+ items in the 1st month.

Do you all think I have great chance at re-activating my account? I am very pi**ed *** and anxious that this might affect my other IDs, especially the selling ID. I only logged in to my other selling ID once since the suspension for a brief time (before I knew the risk). Now I’m afraid to log in to it..

Thx in advance for any advice.

Thank you for looking and Have a Wonderful Day =^.^=

I'm not TRYING to get suspended. I just wanna list as much as humanly possible before getting suspended.

Anyways, just when I thought I'm untouchable guess what I got after listing 3 of these items today.

vero item?
 

hey guys,
i am just wondering how i can tell if my item is vero (or vero-able?)
i know brand name hand bags are, how about brand name perfumes?
is there a list somewhere that tells you what is vero and what is not?

Better then suspension

eBay Help : Community Standards : Policies and conduct : eBay's Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) About Me Pages

That page shows all most all the companies that are vero participants.

Not all participants are listed there, in my experience.

That link shows a majority of vero participants. Maybe there are more.

Well at least u wasn't suspended

Interesting Article About Vero
 

eBay Guides - eBay Vero - What you Must Know

Quite a good read

absolutly craxy isn't it. There has to be a crash in the online market soon. I either mean Ebay and Paypal crumble or along those lines, just get taken down or cut up to bits lol

HI: Yes, thats a recap by an ebay member/ a Review they wrote.
The very BEST Authority from the ranks, is Tabberone..
She just became a member here last week..--Now she IS the authority on ebay/Vero :)

I see yes :)

VERO now flagging listings when listed?
 

I was listing some VERO items and noticed this warning reads differently to the old one;

Yes-theyve been using that, But they still can deny the listing on the next page prompt..

Vero removed golf clubs.
 

Hi. Just when I thought I've seen it all vero removed golf clubs due to trademark infringement etc. The golf clubs that I were selling are genuine and the brand company is not even apart of vero? How can vero remove my item if the vero owner is not even apart of the vero group?

eBay is bologna!!!!!!!!!

I must admit nothing can be sold on eBay U.S. site anymore without being removed point blank and simple.

sounds ridiculous, why would eBay give any member that kind of power and why would you go around reporting listings? Why not stick to your own business?
