i have a previous buyer selling one of my reborns that was purchased from me back in march this year. she has listed it as a NEW item and date of birth as december 2012 and though she has not claimed to have made it she has presented it in such a way on a template so that it appears she is the artist. i have sent her an email telling her that her listing is fraudulent and that i would report her if she did not remove it or adjust her listing. i intend to do this tomorrow if i do not see any changes or response from her but wanted to know ...does ebay block them if they see that they have posted a dishonest listing. am thinking of naming and shaming her by posting her item number and ebay id here as well as a warning to others?? she paid $350 for her, has had her for 9 months. listed her it as NEW and is asking for $525 on buy it now +$35 postage for a used item. maybe i should be flattered??? lol anyone else had this happen and know what ebay will do. i do have proof that it is my work. thank you
thank you everyone for your help. very appreciated...just a FYI on reborning for shypansy though. the reborns that i do (as well and most reputable doll artist) are from brand new reborn kits that are made specifically for reborning. i do not fool with pre-made dolly dolls as they are more trouble than they are worth having to remove factory paints, etc. so they most artist reborns are NEW and not used. that may be helpful for you in the future.
thank you again for your help though.
kind regards
