·1 year agoThis is very poor show on ebay’s part.
My sister is an artist, she does not sell on ebay though.
How frustrated and upset you must both be.

·1 year agoI had a similar issue. I sell trading cards and I have a series of custom made cards that I include with my orders - one per shipment. People like them and asked me to list. Ebay took them down, said they were counterfeit. I asked for a review. Same result.
I commission the art for these cards. I own the art. I pay for the printing. They look literally nothing like the real trading cards.
There is no recourse. No human being at Ebay that is empowered to do anything or cares enough even if they did. The algorithm hath deemed you (and I) to be selling counterfeit items so that's it. Genius algorithm that doesn't know what counterfeit means
