Why I had a Michael Jordan RC reprint removed from eBay for the reason that reprints are not allowed but 11 Wayne Gretzky RC reprints sold in March & there is 7 active listings for the same Gretzky card?!  Absolute nonsense!  Especially when you advertise it as a reprint, what is the problem?  People cannot afford the original so they wish to purchase something similar for a reasonable price.

Could be MJ has a better/bigger/more intuned/or lucky to find:  team looking after these things that WG does not?

 

As stated by others- reprints need to be authorized (some) or they are 'unauthorized' and therefore not allowed.

 

Also the cop can only pull over 1 of 50 speeding a the same time.

Is the above statement in accordance with eBay's policy regarding counterfeit/replica/reprint items?

 

Thanks!


Hey @pburn! When it comes to the counterfeit item policy which can be seen here, we don't allow counterfeit items or unauthorized copies to be listed on eBay. If seller have more specific account related questions when it comes to this, they can reach out to our Trust and Safety team here

copies do decrease the value of the original

its also a copout to say its OK to sell a copy as long as you mention it

its never OK to sell copies of the real thing

 

putting something in the description thats its a copy is just admitting fraud. thats all it is

 

its admitting to the ebay buyers that you are selling a copy and not the real deal

sellers that sell unauthorized copies wallow in the gutter and have no place at ebay

Put 'reprint' in the search bar.  I see 1,500,000+ items for sale & 22,000+ sold.

I did not ask for help with the issues & will not be reading the links.  I wondered why what is good for the goose isn't good for the gander.

Please post a screenshot of the card so we can verify it is a true reprint. There is only ONE MJ authorized official reprint that I know of. Anything else is called a counterfeit.

Because those sellers are selling "legit" reprints and my guess is you were not.

Perhaps using the link Devon provided for the Trust & Safety team would address that question. It's clear you're not receiving satisfactory responses from participating members.

"...Also the cop can only pull over 1 of 50 speeding a the same time..."

 

a decent analogy to your question....you make it sound like the cop is letting others speed by at 90 mph in a 65 mph zone and  they are waiting for you to go by and singling you out for speeding...

 

eventually...most scofflaws get caught...maybe not today, but if they consistently speed, they will.....

This isn't my card but mine looks exactly like this one.  Amz allows it without a problem.

It's NOT without problem; just hasn't been 'reported' yet. AZ is as strict about unauthorized as any venue can be.

Amazon must not care because the one you showed is a counterfeit. Here is the reprint version that Ebay allows.  175618444018.
