Item removed by ebay
Comments

            There's also the possibility that some wording in the title and/or description flagged the listing to Ebay bots and some of the other listed items didn't.
 It could also be that some other sellers are pre approved to sell them, I know that applies to some items, no idea about these boxes though.
 There's an old joke: a man asks a traffic warden if it's ok to park on a street, the traffic warden says "no", so the driver asks why all the other cars are parked there, "they never asked" replies the traffic warden. .0 .0

 Can I suggest you don't sell any fakes on ebay!
 I don't think that heman meant that the OP was selling fakes, simply that they were selling items that are commonly sold as fakes on ebay and selling these items isn't a good idea.
 It's a bit like selling Tiffany jewellery.
 I could have a piece that is 100% genuine, but if I was to list it for sale on ebay, a lot of paople would think that it was dodgy due to the fact that a lot of Tiffany items sold on ebay are not genuine.0

 That is precisely what I meant.0

            I am sooo sick of having the eBay nazis delisting items.
 I sell only expensive high end items, have great feedback and there is certainly nothing dodgy about the items I list. I only list individual, unusual items and am having constant trouble with one item in particular. It is ridiculous that eBay do not check these items before delisting them, and a total pain in the b*tt.
 To top it all, I have tried to add pictures to a description today and before I could I had to take a VRo test!!!!! It was multiple choice and left me feeling like a naughty child.
 Oooh the irony, this company alienates even the best of us.0

            I don't really understand the proliferation of empty boxes/bags/bottles on Ebay....*Look for advice, not 'advise'*

 For the sellers who buy cheap from China, box them up and sell them as something desirable. Sometimes the difference between a 50p piece of tat and a nice gift to give to someone.
 One of the b and m auctions I go to sells a lot of empty boxes and they sell very well.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
