ebay pulled my listing for copyright violation

shailesh

i listed an original item, but the manufacturer reported it for violating intellectual property rights.

i had a number of bids on the item whi was due to finish tonight, i know who the highest bidder was, but is there a way of going back to find out the other bidders?

everything i did was above board and i'm really unsure of what i did wrong.

thanks

Are you sure it was the manufacturer who reported it? Firstly check on ebay to see how many other items like yours are listed, if there are none then yes could have been manufacturer but if there are still others, then It could just be another seller who wanted you out of the way so they could sell theirs.

Reword your item, reword your title, use another picture and relist.....for a shorter length of time....also ensure that you don't list next to any other seller.........if that is at all possible....

Did the word VERO appear in the email from ebay?

did you include a pic and if so, where was the pic from? i had a clinique listing pulled once as i used one of their pics unaware of what vero was! also, if you copy any of thier text like discriptions or wording on packaging, they will pull it.
