listing violation for using "like Dr Martens"

I have had a listing removed as I had put "like Dr Martens" in the listing - I'm fine with that if thats the rule, however I was looking at other listings and found one that said similar to Doc Martens - how is this different?

thanks

Coco Chanel  was an example - pure and simple of no interest to me - I am not complaining I am stating the  facts

"CHANEL, the international luxury goods company, was founded in France by Gabrielle
โ€œCocoโ€ Chanel in 1911 and continues as one of the worldโ€™s preeminent fashion houses.  "  extacted from Ebay policy (VeRo)

Took a quick look at Coco Chanel listings,  what are you saying is wrong with them, I couldnt see anything that said they were like or similiar.

"Q: Why can't I use the word "CHANEL" in my auction heading even though I am not selling a
CHANEL item?
A: It is misleading and impermissible to use the word "CHANEL" when there is no legitimate
connection between the goods sold and the use of the name. "

Anyhow the point is it's up to Chanel to report the issue,   if you have such a concern,  talk to the seller or Chanel,  it's not something us forum readers can help you with

Yes I know that, we covered that quite a few questions ago but you keep asking me questions and I feel it is rude not to respond. I don't have any real concerns but just stating facts
