Can someone explain why my listing was removed - I'm confused!

Hi all - hoping one of you ebay experts can help explain why my listing was removed 1hour before ending.

It was for an empty Links of London Charm gift Box - I took my own picture and was carefult to make it clear there was no charm just the box.

I got an email from ebay saying VeRo had removed my listing but the email just confused me more - it sounded like they were saying the auction was for a fake.

Can someone maybe explain to me?

Thanks guys

    Links of London do not like any of their products appearing on eBay, as it cheapens the brand. Also, an empty genuine box also makes a fake bracelet look more "attractive/plausible" when sold on.

    There are a number of companies that are like this now - they will only allow certain people to sell or distribute their products, and some do not allow original purchasers to sell on the goods after use.

    So basically I can't sell it?

    But that makes a lot more sense than the gobbledy they sent in an email - Thanks!
