Sorry for wall of text, not in good mood. I posted the other day about about getting my 1st listing violation for adult comic books in wrong category(which there were'nt). Noticed my sales plummeted starting on day of violation week and half ago. I have not listed anything til last night. I listed 3 items around 7pm est. 1st 2 showed up right away and had 3 watchers within hour on ny subway sign. 3rd item 2 WWII 1944 calendars signed by B17 crews at 8pm, woke up expected 10 or more watchers and bids....nothing. Item cant be found, 0 views. Called ebay and when I told him its odd that my last item is not visible yet and previous items have views and watchers. I said its like ebay is punishing me by keeping me invisible or buried in search results and he said "yes, they do that". So I asked why the "wrong category" violation for adult comic books, I thought I had them in the right category, he said "you had them in the right category, ebays computer flagged them as counerfeit"...what? He explained that because ebays computers seen several other listings with similar words that mine must be counterfeit. There are 100s of others just like them in same category. You know what he told me to do? Just relist and change the words around in title. There are always comments in ebays favor saying , well, you should have done this or that...its because they are not allowed.. Well ebay customer service just told just told me I did nothing wrong but paying the price.
