THAT was the Ebay AI question....here is MY experience :-)
Hello,
Here we go again..! Been selling here since they opened and this is getting frustrating ...
I have a listing for FIONA COOPER magazines....( eBay item number:327355233845 )
This is now a RELISTING....had 3-4 different lots,1 sold,so have relisted THIS lot several times with NO problems.
Now its been taken down AND I've been restricted for 7 days...
Doing a search right now there are 76 similar listings and 162 SOLD of same magazines.
WHY????
Regards,
George (Ricoman1)
Thanks!

·2 weeks agoHere is how I have successfully dealt wth your problem.
I used to sell adult magazines on ebay back when they had an "adults only" section.
I stopped selling them around 2021 when ebay no longer allowed them.
The solution is simple: Don't sell them on ebay.

There are currently 4,693 driving more than 10 miles over the speed limit between Duluth MN and Dallas TX on I-35W.
Over 100,000 drivers were doing the same thing yesterday and were not pulled over yesterday day.

OP2 weeks agoYeah,thats true..BUT..Police cant enter FORD into a data base and issue all Ford drivers on that highway on that day a ticket.! EBAY does have the ability to enforce THEIR rules with a few clicks of the mouse....im just curious why they pick and choose??
Funny story..few years ago they canceled a magazine on me...just a 1950's mens magazine..no sex or nudity... I did call them about it..spent 30 minutes in phone with 2 reps...they had no clue why...then the gal says..i think its because if your photo #6...huh??? Its a cartoon..!
Yes,but one of her nipples is showing!
Crazy....

Would you want your minor child seeing a girls nipples? I would not and I would be willing to bet more people would agree with me than not.

·2 weeks agoOnly one way - DON'T SELL THEM ON EBAY
They have your number now and you will never be able to list them without getting in trouble.
Try another platform. (Not Facebook either)

I thought I read on here on an earlier thread on this topic many sellers of adult material were going to Ecrater.com or Bonanza.com.

I got caught speeding back in 1976, haven't been pulled over since - do I sometimes exceed the posted speed limit - yes I do, and just because I haven't been caught, doesn't mean it's legal to exceed the posted speed limit, it just means that I haven't been caught.
Don't try and relist the magazine as the bots will now patrol your listings a little more aggressively to make sure you don't.
