Bwahahah... thanks for the laugh.

Perhaps the eBay Community isn't the best place to ask for advice on how to breach their policies 😂😂😂

You thought it would be fun to knowingly sell a counterfeit watch?

You cannot 'get around' the rules

There are also rules about knowingly mailing counterfeit items

Not the best idea to post such a thing in a public forum for anyone and everyone to read, including those rule makers

Your comment makes me wonder if you have or are currently listing fakes. It really is no joke.

If you can buy them up in bulk, register an account in China and not mention they're fakes, the listings won't be removed !!!

AND you'll probably be given the title of

OP, the policy on this is clear.

❝We don't allow counterfeit items, replicas or unauthorised copies to be listed on eBay.

Items sold using a brand name or a brand logo must be original and made by the brand or manufactured on their behalf.

Software, music, movies and other media must be original and not unauthorised copies.

What is the policy?

Counterfeit products are illegal and not allowed on eBay. These items may infringe on someone's copyright or trademark.

Examples of counterfeit products include:
- A replica handbag, watch or pair of sneakers
- Knockoff electronics, such as headphones or accessories like a charging cable
- An unauthorised reprint of a trading card
- A T-shirt or mug printed with copyrighted images
- Bootleg recordings of a concert or other live shows
- Unauthorised copies of movies, music or software
- Pirated recordings of television shows❞

Whether listed as a joke or as a deception, or even as a “thought it might be genuine but am not sure”, items that are knockoffs, fakes, replicas, unauthorised copies etc are just not permitted on eBay. They are illegal to sell. It exposes both seller and buyer to civil faction with significant fines, or even to criminal charges under the Trade Marks Act 1995.

You may want to try jokes along the lines of a whoopee cushion instead…? 🤡🃏
