Listing Removed- other still listed
Why was my listing of a pair of salt & pepper shakers w/ the rebel flag removed yet others are still listed on line?

OP5 months agoThank you! Seems like eBay has a different set of rules for different sellers!

The policy applies to all sellers. As I wrote in my previous response, the other sellers haven't been caught yet.
There are over 2 billion active listings on eBay with new ones added every minute. eBay bots are continually scanning for violations, but they don't catch them all. Unfortunately, some sellers bent on breaking the rules may figure out ways to avoid getting caught. Once a seller is caught however, that seller may be on eBay's radar for extra scrutiny.

Mentor5 months agoHI @elizb07
Your listing was caught, but the others haven't been (yet). You can report listings that violate policy using the report link at the bottom right of the listing page (click the question mark).
Here's the policy:
