Dear xxxxxx(xxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com),

You recently listed the following auction-style listing:

270270403786 - Brand New Adidas RX Clip In Replacement Lenses


The auction-style listing was removed because it violated the eBay Medical and Prescription Items policy. We notified members who placed bids on the item that the listing has been canceled.

To protect consumer health and safety, sales of drugs and other medical items are heavily regulated. For this reason, listings for drugs and other items that require a prescription from a doctor, dentist, optometrist, or veterinarian are not permitted on eBay. Listings for other health care or medical-related items are severely restricted. For example, regulations governing the sale contact lenses (prescription and non-prescription) vary widely from one region to another. For this reason, listings for contact lenses are not permitted on eBay.

You might want to check your other listings for similar violations as well.

Thank you for your understanding.

What the heck, these are just lenses not drugs

Don't put the title "RX" in your description. This gives ebay the assumption that the lense or clip has Prescription. You are not allowed to sell anything like prescription eyewear or contacts.

wats rx mean

they are just the sports glasses replacement lenses, they have no prescription...

w.e they are only worth like 10 bucks anyway... forget it

"Rx" Means Prescription. By putting the Rx in the title is implying the the Lense has prescription in them. Modee is right by putting Rx-able is implying that the frame or clip is able to fit prescription lenses.

LOL that reminds me...
A year ago I was selling a "Rock shaped like an indian arrow"
Guess what...they removed it because your are not supposed to sell indian artifacts. It was a freaking ROCK lol.
Thats what I hate about ebay: they hire college kids that know NOTHING about the stuff you sell, they dont even read your listings...and they can decide if you fit on ebay or not. No appeals!

katie is that you in your avatar? if so your hot. :cool:

i tried selling something silly, i think one thing was a fart in a condom lol !!! There is a story (big) story behind it and they removed it because it was connected with human bones etc :/

LoL I would never put my face on this forum. Dont you know we are all banned from ebay here? LOL
And BTW...I'm sure there are at least 4-5 users of this forum that are ebay employees. One of the best strategies the corporations use is to infiltrate inside forums like this, act like regular users, and monitor everybodys activity or new ideas that might come up. I bet they bought the Steath Guide too! I survived a dictatorship (cant tell which one) and these things are common knowledge.

Looks like he's trying to sell Eye Glasses--no??
If thats the case-possibly another category-- search your competitors..
I once listed a first aid kit for a Commercial RESTAURANT, and had it pulled.
I relisted in another category--it stayed up..
--Ive also listed Drug Test kits for a restaurant--Pulled, changed Category--and remained up, long enough to sell out..
--They have something weird when it comes to medical Supplies/Equipment..

Well, I hope you are not using this picture to sell on eBay. :eek:

If yes, try using the macro option (usually a little flower) on your camera. There is also a good guide I found online, which worked great for a friend of mine: How to Make Your eBay Auction Pictures Standout
