My violation reply from eBay. 

We had to remove your listing because it didn’t follow our Electronic equipment policy. Most electronic equipment used to transmit or receive signals or for surveillance are not allowed.

What activity didn't follow the policy

Thank you for choosing eBay to list your item. Please understand that you have listed a Radio Device or an amplifier or linear amplifer or Bi-Linear amplifier or HAM, where the listing does not state the exact frequency with which it is working. Please mention the frequency and you may relist the item or if it works with CB radio then please do not relist the item. "

Why me and not them?

The message you sent went to an address that doesn’t accept incoming email.

So what was the point in sending it?

eBay could make things easier on all sellers if they would just say this is what your profit will be after we take our share. They make more than I do after including tax in the final value fee. I receive 48 cents on an $1.65 sale after eBay takes what they want. Say if what I was selling cost me 20 cents after all is done, I make 28 cents on a $1.65 listing.

You can't be serious about selling a $1.65 item on eBay with free shipping. Total waste of your time. You are learning why this is not financially feasible.  Maybe combine a few items into one listing.  Good luck.

Why was my listing removed when similar listings are still active?

If your listing is removed by eBay, you may see similar listings still active on the site. This could be for several reasons:

• There may be differences between the two listings that are not obvious
• The other seller may be a rights owner or an authorized retailer of the item
• A participant in the VeRO program may have asked us to remove your listing but hasn't requested the other listing's removal. These types of removals are only done at the request of the VeRO participant; they are not eBay's decision. Read more about the VeRO Program
• Your listing was reported to us, but the other listing was not

If you think another listing violates our policies, please let us know and we'll investigate.

With many variable factors that aren't known until a buyer pays (shipping, tax based on buyer's shipping address) it wouldn't be feasible for eBay to show you that info during the listing process. Then factor in things like listing upgrade (reserve) fees, auction formats with unknown final sale prices, promoted listings, etc and things get muddier.

Fees are outlined here:

Do an internet search and you'll find websites that offer an eBay fee calculator, but keep in mind they will not be 100% accurate due to factors mentioned above.
