I have received this notice :

"Unfortunately, access to this particular listing or item has been blocked due to a Paris commercial court decision that bans trade of certain authentic perfumes and cosmetic products on eBay because of French selective distribution laws. eBay is appealing this ruling but is nevertheless required to enforce it. We are blocking your viewing in an effort to comply with this court decision. Regrettably, in some cases, we may prevent users from accessing items that are not within the scope of the decision because of limitations on existing technology."

This notice seems to be appearing on all the Avon products I have listed for sale - some have watchers, some have bids.  Nearly 3000 Avon products are on sale on ebay - does anybody have a reason as to why are my items being blocked like this?  The products are only face creams, foot creams etc.
The help content goes in here!

Sounds as if your items have been reported. There are lots of products that the companies owning them do not allow people to sell and actively stop people form selling them.
Some have even resorted in fines or court cases

Do not try relisting or you could get a black mark from ebay or worse be banned from selling

I can view your listings with no problem.
However, you seem to have forgotten to register as a business seller so you should do this asap.

Thanks Redwick and Jambutty - these answers were helpful, although I've now received this notice:-

 

"We here in the Community team are aware of threads that are reporting issue viewing items using Internet Explorer. This issue appears only in Internet Explorer 8 and not in IE 7 or 9, Firefox, or Chrome. Please use one of these browsers if you encounter this problem. 

We strongly encourage any member experiencing this issue to report it to Customer Support along with details of the browser version number and operating system."

 

Like Jambutty, bidders seemed to have no problems viewing or bidding, so all was good in the end.  PS - I'm not a business seller, but I have been an Avon rep for 24 years and have accumulated lots of old stock over the years.  Thanks anyway guys. x
