eBay removed my purple heart medal

[myjunkmightbeurtreasure]

I am wondering why eBay removed my purple heart medal if I see many on there listed. Now, after the fact I know it is not allowed. Still my question why are there many listed and in the sold section as well. One sold recently for 1600.00. Thanks for your time 🙂

You drew the short straw. Either that or a competitor reported you.

The answer to your question about why others are available will be because there are so many ads for items and ebay can't police everything on their site.

Listings are NEVER ended simply because they get reported.  The seller would have to of breached at least one rule or policy on Ebay.

Maybe this will help.

Since you can't or shouldn't sell it here, maybe you might consider this.

If I'm not mistaken, since all of the hullabaloo and problems with 'stolen valor', it has been illegal to sell certain medals of recognition.
