Trying to list something but it's driving me nuts!

Interesting! I wonder if it is because I lived in France for a few years when I first set up my Ebay account - then transferred it to Ebay u.k. when i moved.

You know, it probably is. I used to regularly bid on eBay.fr and eBay.de - the type of items I was interested in were far cheaper there, and most sellers were very happy to ship to the UK if asked politely. I suspect that is how I somehow picked up the restriction. Now I only use my old eBay account to buy on these sites, as I don't want my newer one to get all the LVMH and these perfume house restrictions put on it.

Like many others making the most of the free listing weekend to list an unwanted gift on Ebay. It's a sealed mascara/eye shadow set.
Well it just won't let me list, I have tried everything including not posting abroad but I keep getting the same message. The annoying thing is other people have successfully listed identical items under 'health & beauty' - 'make up tools' - 'sets and kits'
This is the message I get - any ideas? I am not selling any of the banned makes...

You cannot submit your listing due to the following problems
Cher Vendeur,
A la suite d’une d!cision de justice rendue le 03 septembre 2010, eBay est contraint d’interdire aux utilisateurs, jusqu'à nouvel ordre, de vendre des produits de parfumerie et cosm!tiques des marques des soci!t!s Guerlain, Parfums Givenchy, Kenzo Parfums et Parfums Christian Dior.

Merci de vous assurer que votre annonce est conforme à cette interdiction.

Nous vous souhaitons beaucoup de succès sur eBay.

I've had this message before when I tried to list a gift set from Sanctuary and also a gift set from No 7. On both occasions I contacted ebay but they were unable to help - correction they told me they had fixed it but when I tried to list the item it still gave me the same message.

I think it's something that ebay don't know how to fix and they don't seem to understand why it happens (they certainly couldn't give me an explanation).

It's frustrating as I've got a few more unwanted presents of gift sets I would like to list but won't be able to :(:(

At least you know that you aren't the only one now (little comfort I know!)....
