Topic: Trouble with the EBay PURSE POLICE anyone?
-
Greetings! Just moved over from eBay (or e bad, as I call it now!) and joined this club! In my first post I described the awful time I had with some self-appointed people who make it their business to check everyone's purse listings and decide if they are "foach" or not. Anyway, I have a 100% rating for several years, but this was just the last straw for me. They were ruthless and gave no evidence or reasons why they reported me and ebad canceled my listings. (based on ????) I was just wondering if there was anyone else out there who has had the same experience? Would love to hear from you---we can commiserate together!

Hi there,
YES I have had alot of trouble with ebay concerning purses. Especially Coach bags. My ebay account is limited to the amount of designer items I can sell because of a pic I put of the Coach label. I didn't realize the pic was a little blurry and out of focus. The purse was removed(of course) but '3 weeks later', a week before the email about the
new changes, ebay put the limitations on my account. No matter the proof of authenticity I presented, they WOULD NOT remove the limitations. We ended EVERY listing and after numerous emails (took a week to get a responce)and time wasting calls to customer service, we started researching online about ebay suspensions and Low and Behold we completely fell out of ebay lala land that we were in. Ebay to us was AWESOME. This was reality. The real ebay scumbags. There are some really horrible stories on the net. We found powersellersunite during that week and then a couple days later the email of ebays new changes arrived. This all started the first week in January. We just continued the boycott until last weekend. I am listing some items to get rid of alot of my inventory(my closet and bedroom can't take any more) Its sad because I always sell 95% of the auctions I list.May 1st I'm done with feebay, greedbay. No more for me. I have 4 daughters and 3 grandchildren that all live with me and expenses are up and the extra money is great but I'll list what I have on ioffer and spanish hello and then take some time to do some crafts I love until the traffic improves on both sites. And it will, once the new changes are implemented, it won't be long before small sellers are Fleeing. I have a lot of gorgeous vintage Dooney and Bourke bags that are AUTHENTIC to sell but I won't put them on ebay. I will be listing them here and at the spanish hello. We are not the only ones that have had trouble with handbags. I think they are competitors that don't want to loose sales to the small sellers. They'll reap what they sow in the end.
Thats always a comfort to me. Take Care. Sherrie

The purse-police are much worse here, I assure you.
Be careful out there.

There are some self-appointed net-cops here who appear to neither buy or sell, and serve no other earthly purpose other than to 'patrol' stores reporting 'infractions', that usually don't even exist. In other words, they have nothing better to do with their lives. I have a friend who sells legit designer bags that has to fight them constantly.
Of course there's the competition as well...if you get my drift.
