    @tik.us.cy3xyxwj  No that's not allowed.... here's the policy> 

     

    "Not be expired prior to reaching the buyer, and clearly state the expiration in the description"

     

    https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/prohibited-restricted-items/prescription-overthecounter-drugs-policy?id=5048&st=

     

    You can report the seller here>  

    https://www.ebay.com/help/action?topicid=4022

     

    The seller has violated one of eBay’s policies>  other

     

    Then state in the box that this seller is selling expired items and put a few item numbers and a link to the policy I shared.

    No, that's a policy violation.

    You can use the Report link on the listing to bring it to eBay's attention. Or if there are many listings from the seller, it's easier to use the report seller option here:
