      I feel for you Matt. The ebay offices are certainly overrun with people sorely in need of a good asswhippin'.

      And if I hear one more ebay "cheerleader" chime in on this thread there might be a hostage situation.

      You're not on their payroll.....they couldn't give a crap if you live or die.....don't bother defending them.

        Is it safe to say some of you guys saying this will never be using Ebay ever again in the future?
        Nate,

        I use them to buy Dodger tickets on occasion, and a few other items now and then.

        But that's the point. I use them to buy. Selling has too many issues that come along along with it, like having your paypal account frozen when some other moron posts a 100% totally bogus claim against you. But we all hit on that on another thread.

        It's just not worth it to me to list on their anymore. The aggravation and one-sided (and unfair) mentality that runs the show there has gotten completely out of control. But that's me. If you find it works for you, go at it, good luck and I wish you all the success in the world. And, I suppose some day I will use them to sell again. Once.

          I was once told by a great ol' wise one - 'BUT SOMETIMES eBay IS A NECESSARY EVIL'.

            Had the same thing happen to me a month ago.Tried selling 3 authentic Mitchell & Ness and 2 Majestic jerseys-bang:shut down for "copyright infringement".Meanwhile,the sweatshop jerseys with fake manufacturer tags don't get shut down-how are they not infringing by selling an obviously fake jersey with obviously fake tags?Anyway,I relisted without company names but kept in the tag pics so people could see they were real and they were allowed to stay up.
            Anyway,eBay sucks.

            Good Luck,

            Same thing happened to me too.

            I bought a bunch of Mitchell & Ness jerseys on eBay a few years back and all are legit. One in particular was a Robin Yount M&N jersey that was simply too big for me. So I end up putting the very same jersey I bought on eBay, right back on eBay with the same listing....and it gets removed for a copyright violation.

            Makes no sense.

            So I have a jersey I bought on eBay, that I can't sell on eBay.

            There are so many fake Mitchell & Ness jerseys on eBay that are so bad it's unreal that they allowed to be listed. I'm an A's fan, and just look for the "A's" logo on the front. The overseas sweatshop usually makes the apostrophe BACKWARDS which is laughable. Check this one for example:



            Not only is the apostrophe backwards, but it's a jersey Mitchell & Ness couldn't have ever made (black??).

            But these are allowed, WHY?
            Because they never say "Mitchell & Ness". They usually get around it by showing the picture far away, (no close up of the tag), and then they say "Cooperstown Collection" or something but NOT "Mitchell & Ness" or "M&N". Both are flagged terms.

            Thus, for your Cutler jersey, you can probably get around it by having your ad simply state that it's a Limited run Jay Cutler Jersey. That's it. No mention of the NFL, no mention of Reebok, no mention of the Chicago Bears. It might work, but then again eBay is so messed up that it's impossible to tell what gets through their screening process and what doesn't.

            And when/if it does get yanked, you're screwed and can't do anything about it...welcome to the new eBay. Sucks.

              Im on vacation in South Korea (have been for the past month) and I went to Osan market, and man do they have A TON of fake baseball and football jerseys for sale there! Plus and Amry and AF base is located right near there so im sure troops are taking them back to the states to sell or sending them back. Good money to be made if you want to sell fake jerseys.......BTW the Army and AF has nothing on the MARINES! haha
