It looks like eBay no longer cares about reborn kit knock-offs

I reported about 8 knock-off listings on eBay last week, most from China and a few from Sri Lanka. All of them were kits that were limited edition or open but without license to copy. Here is what eBay sent back to me regarding my report of an August McLeod counterfeit:

A decision was made on the listing you reported

Please don’t reply to this message. It was sent from an address that doesn’t accept incoming email.

They sent me the same response for the other 7 reports. Some were stated as AI decisions. They no longer care. :tired_face: :frowning_face:

I’ve gotten the same reply whenever I report fakes :rage:

It’s so discouraging. :confused:

They don’t care at all. It’s pathetic. I’ve reported fakes over the years, but nothing ever happens, and I don’t even remember getting a response at all from them. I hear Etsy is starting to get bad, too. Probably the only way to get their attention is if a large percentage of their buyers and sellers boycotted them.

You are right…they don’t care…
.they are getting their FVF from all those fake sales.

Volume speaks louder than a small hobbyist.

I say boycott eBay. They seem to hide listings now, anyway. About a year ago I stopped getting views on my listings. They have changed a lot of things, not for the best.

I quit selling there last year and I haven’t bought anything there in a couple years at least.
