eBay removed item for policy violation

eBay policy states the following (edited for clarity)

 

Medical devices that require a prescription can't be sold on eBay. Medical equipment that could be abused for unlawful means is also not permitted. Listings for items that are permitted must follow our policy.

 

Any medical device that requires a prescription can't be sold on eBay, including:

  • Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machines (CPAP), along with masks, humidifiers, heated water chambers, and heated tubing

The reason this is restricted on eBay is because a CPAP is classified by the FDA as a Class II (moderate to high risk) medical device and users will need a prescription to buy or rent one

Also you cannot relist the item, as you will be under ebay's radar

I am not an eBay employee but I sure feel like one sometimes

So weird as many other sellers have them listed. They are replacement parts and no prescription is required the medical supply company auto sends replacements on a quarterly basis bills your insurance certain supplies are approved quarterly based on recommended times to replace with new ones

 

but whatever can’t fight eBay but I do feel it is misinterpreting the policy
