Ebay canceled my listing of a network camera because it is called a "surveillance camera".
Summary: diversified36 shared an issue where their listing of a network camera on eBay was canceled because the camera was labeled as a "surveillance camera." The discussion does not include further responses or details from other participants.
Of course, I appealed this, because it is obviously STUPID!!! This is the response I received, from ebay:
"We reviewed your appeal of an action on your account. Upon further review, we’re unable to grant your appeal because the listings aren’t following our Electronic equipment policy. We appreciate you listed on eBay, however you listed a product which breaches eBay's Electronic Equipment Items Policy.
What this means for you:

- Listings that didn’t follow this policy will remain removed or hidden until they can be edited to address the policy issue.
- Any restrictions or suspensions that may have been placed on your account will remain in place. Listings will automatically be restored and show up in search results after the end of any temporary restriction.
- Please ensure that you understand our policy so that you follow it in future listings. Listings that don't follow this policy in the future may result in additional actions, which could include: restriction, suspension, hiding listings from search, ending listings, loss of seller rating, and forfeiture of fees.
Here's a list of the items that didn't follow policy:
