·1 year agoAre you joking? There are hundreds of other places to sell your "For" items.
Have you not explored the possibilities?

·1 year agoThere are many sites which you would not even be able to list your items because of pre-approval requirements,
Vero is a relatively small program compared to what is restricted or prohibited on the bigger internet marketplaces.
You would already have lost whatever ability to sell you had if you had received 4 IP complaints on some other marketplaces.
You will not want to believe it but Ebay cares more about keeping its sellers than other larger sites.

·1 year agoAs me living in Las Vegas in the past...I sure do miss Las Vegas.
Noticing you sold a Sahara Casino chair and one also listed for sale...they were chairs for a casino in New Jersey that the casino was 'never built'.
They are not used..but maybe were sitting in a warehouse for decades.
They are not from Las Vegas....rather mis-leading...They are from New Jersey.
I only looked at a few items for sale.
The casino chips...however...are so so cool.

OP1 year agoI picked up the chairs at SLS Casino warehouse, so technically they are Sahara promotion chairs and they were used in the Sahara Casino here in Vegas. The manufacturer of all of their chairs is Majestic in New Jersey.
Majestic Built them all with thick aluminum plate and solid aluminum legs. The chairs are beastly, a product of true American craftsmanship and design. I think i undervalued them imho.
As for the chips i live on Howard Hughes Corporate Property and i'm a Huge Fan of Hughes, a Great Visionary and like all Great Visionaries i'm sure he was treated with much Disdain by Negative people.

·1 year agoWorking in Vegas and working at Bellagio, MGM, Star Trek, Circus Circus(had to start somewhere) and so on... the chairs look new and considering some of the slightly(over whatever)heavy players they look never used.
As a side note: matches covers are also a 'hot item' to sell since you live there...just a tip.
I spent many a times playing at Sahara in Las Vegas...not a high roller or a whale.
Desert Inn and Howard Hughes...the stories...he did do that Hughes H-4 Hercules ...Spruce Goose...saw that when it was with the Queen Mary Ship in Long Beach long ago.
They say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas...o my goodness...the stories I can tell you living there!

Don't down Circus Circus... when I first went to the one in Vegas, I was enthralled. A JAMES BOND movie was filmed there. Not a great one, but it was a Connery Bond film. Just to be in that place was incredible

OP1 year agoIt's been all Power Tools Ryobi, and some other Automotive stuff. It seems you can't list Ford Brake Discs but you need to list it as For Fits a Ford Probe, consequently it seems as if us Sellers are the only ones that get Probed.

·1 year agoeBay's Vero program (which has no legal status, is just a name eBay invented) is the result of the passing of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998. eBay started the Vero program in late 1998.
The EU laws that are similar to the DMCA were enacted in 2000, they were subsequently revised to more strict rules on liability partially at least the result of the L'Oreal and LV cases against eBay.

Sorry this is happening. There are SO MANY other platforms to sell your stuff on. Looks like you have been having issues with Ebay since 2020 (according to your forum posts), so at least you have been trying to tough it out

At one point eBay accounted for about 90% of my sales by volume. Post diversification across multiple platforms and venues, mostly driven by eBay due to restricted/prohibited items and VERO, they now account for about 20% of my sales by volume.

·1 year agoIf you hate it here so much, it seems rather silly for you to stay here. There are lots of other places you can sell, but you do know that there will be problems on those other sites too, maybe not the same problems as here but there will be problems nonetheless. Unless you start your own website where you can make your own rules, you have to decide if it is worth it to you to stay on eBay and abide by the rules they have in place.

·1 year agoAs @inhawaii mentioned, there are so many (n)other places you could sell (For) items on.
What exactly are you selling that is causing this?
dbfolks166mt
·1 year agoNot much detail on what is going on here but there are lots of other places to sell your items. The constantly growing list of eBay's prohibited and restricted items in conjunction with the VERO program are amongst the reasons I diversified across multiple platforms and venues long ago.

·1 year agoYikes! With that many VeRO takedowns, you're on thin ice as far as eBay is concerned.
What do the removals say as the reason for the removals? Is it for using other companies' stock images? (Most websites have terms that disallow use of their intellectual property.)
For example, your Charter Club (Macy's) sheets:
This is directly from Macy's website:
"All images, graphics, code, software and other content used on or incorporated into this website are subject to intellectual property rights held by or licensed to Macys.com, LLC or its affiliates. Subject to your compliance with these terms of use, Macy's grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sub-licensable license to access and make personal and non-commercial use of this website. This license does not include: (a) any commercial use of this website or its contents; (b) any collection or use of any product listings, descriptions, images or videos."

OP1 year agoMacy's isn't the problem. It's the Automotive & Tools categories all the time. Seems as if they're sales are non-existent and their employees come to ebay to pick off sellers, which makes no sense to me. If i'm in the market for a used/open box Sawzall i will buy one on Ebay, but if i've made up my mind that i want a New Dewalt Sawzall i go down to Home Depot and buy a Brand New one. It won't make a lick of difference if you remove all sawzalls from ebay, I will then go down to the Pawnshop and buy a used/open box Sawzall at the Pawnshop.

·1 year agoThe Vero program is a way for bullying big corps to make unsuspecting sellers think they have the right to take down legitimate items because "they don't want them sold for less on eBay". I've had close to 100 items removed illegally this way over the years. Every time they are put back after providing proof authenticity. Ebay knows it's happening, but they allow it to protect themselves. Disgusting.
