What ebay listings have you had removed?

[clovis97]

Just curious what listings that you've had removed by ebay.

Mine are:

Model rocket engines

A bottle of Marilyn Monroe wine

 

[Ursus]

Prada handbag

Antique 1880s Porter's luggage key (said it was some Federal law against terrorism).

 

[isabella1]

A Boston police jacket. Bummer was it sold bin for $570 then it was flagged and refunded. Guess you can't sell authentic police jackets. I still have them for holloween! Also was an ivory pin.

 

[cooper1841]

A Toy cap gun. There was Noooooo doubt, by the pics that this was an old toy, not a real gun.

 

[rickn1]

" Pistol Grip" Telephoto Lens for Pentax camera.

 

[diggummup]

Mini pinfire guns, sold one of them after third attempt.
Replica FBI badge encased in lucite, desk display piece/paperweight.
Bone dice.
Cold steel knife lot had a Mini pal in it.
Coach bag, relisted it with no problems, changed nothing.

That's it off the top of my head, i'm sure there were others, years ago.

A bag of Dunkin Donuts coffee, pulled 4 hours before it ended. Pulled because of "copyright infringement and because DD couldn't 'verify' that it was the real thing or the freshness of it".

It had 5 bids, 2 watchers and was going for approx. $25.

 

[SEANO]

Billie Club
Dummie Rounds
Coach
Artillery Shell (sell as tramp).
P90X (it was boot-leg)
Vintage Political button, someone said was fake.
Fire Extinguisher (liquid)
Some other items that I can't remember.

I've noticed you can move some of these if you keep it to a 1 day auction, though Ebay is getting better at picking the items up earlier. I've had people contact me and buy it after delisted.

 

[TreasureHunters]

a defibulator, a fake coach bag

 

[GibH]

I've had a couple, but can't remember exactly what they were. It's been a long time. I do remember they were from complaints by the manufacturer.

 

[Lafitte Deux]

1971 sealed cigarette pack from Air Force One.
I saw one that sold earlier, so I thought I'd try.

 

[clovis97]

Oh, I almost forgot about this one...which made my blood boil when it happened.

A Rosetta Stone program to learn Spanish. I picked up a kit with the CD/DVD's, the books, and the box.

Ebay yanked the listed because "Rosetta Stone said that it was counterfeit, and that I, as the seller, was not the original copyright licensee."

Man, I was ticked at the time, and I disagree(d) with the Federal law on copyright licensing.

In hindsight, I should have sold it as a BIN with an attractive price.

 

[spartacus53]

All of the above reasons is why I would never sell on e-bay.

I prefer the open "Black Market"

 

[2Escudo]

New Zippos. Relisted them not saying new any where and they sold.

Colt AR15/223 Gun magazines. Yanked, cause I didn't put in how many rounds they held.
There lost, I got good prices selling at a flea market.

 

[diggummup]

1 more I remembered- Vintage photographic sets of nude women. Listed in correct category with correct wording in title. Relisted, didn't change a thing, and sold about a dozen sets of them.

I remember something else too once, just don't remember what item it was. It had something to do with Native Americans and the actual tribe they were from.

 

[dieselram94]

1971 sealed cigarette pack from Air Force One.
I saw one that sold earlier, so I thought I'd try.

You didn't have any cigars from the oval office did you?

 

[centfladigger]

I found a man and womans Rolex box and bag with all paperwork in a foreclosed cleanout, I listed the Mens on Ebay and had it up to around $75 in 2 days and then suddenly it was pulled, within an hour I was hit up through ebay by a guy from NY wanting to buy it.....other Rolex boxes were selling, I belive this NYer reported it to buy it off line from me

 

[Tom Bigbee]

A Red Ryder BB gun many years ago ( 1998 ). This was before you had to put orange plugs on all toy guns. The bidding was up to $250.00... I didn't know at the time if it shoots a projectile, you can't sell it. Since then I have sold over $30,000 worth of stuff, not all of that was profit. I've made more money selling action figures then anything else. Is anyone familiar with Marvel Legends?

 

[randazzo1]

Bunch of WWII / WWI Items Like Army Crates, Clips and Straps. I eventually figured out that it was the word "machine gun" which was kicking them.
Every once in a while I get a piece of Tiffany & Co. jewelry kicked. The worst part about that is that you are then sometimes banned from re-listing for 30 days. Very weird. Same thing with Chanel items. Those two brands seem to be very heavily audited.
Antique Firecraker Labels
An antique spring loaded fishing hammer ( I made the mistake of saying "work's like a switch blade" in the listing)
A pair of David Yurman earrings. My photos allegedly did not show enough a detail to confirm they were real. I re-posted with the original owner's receipt.
A rev war butt plate (again -- made the mistake of mentioning the weapon in the title)
Little over a carat of uncut diamonds from the 1900's. Never got an explanation on this one. Tried to re-list and they got bumped again. I still have them.

I'm not --- but I would VERY much like to be! Please tell about them.
