Will eBay actually do something about duplicate listings?

How seriously does eBay take duplicate listings?..a seller has about 50-60 listings, but strip away the duplicates and it’s more like 20 listings..very egregious violation of the eBay policy, will they actually do something if reported or is it a waste of time?

 

cheers

You can report it but ebay does nothing, I've reported online and also called in. Talk to rep and agreed it was a violation and supposedly passed it on, yet they still list duplicate listings.  Ebay doesn't get it, if you flood the market prices drop

Well, you guys were mostly right, reported all the duplicate listings..nothing came of it, posted to Twitter and they got back to me asking for more details..sent them all the duplicates and they looked into it..all sellers items were removed during one night, but all items were relisted the next day (duplicates and all)..reported again, and as of Thursday last week, eBay has done nothing..

 

maybe I wouldn’t be so upset if eBay didn’t bother me from time to time asking for all sorts of ridiculous paperwork to prove this and that and to make sure I’m on the up and up..I do everything by the book and to see others grossly violating supposed policy listings, degrading the selling category and lowering the value of the items and just getting away with it is disheartening, maybe I should list the exact same item 5 times with slightly different wording and prices that vary by 1.00$.
