Hi, I sell classic car parts, have done for several years on eBay. last week one of my items was flagged under the counterfeit items policy. It is a Volvo amazon front wing badge. A late 60's - 70's car. The '121' badge is no longer produced by Volvo, so the only way a person who wants a new one for their restoration is to buy a reproduction 'Bastuck' one, which is what i'm selling. But - really scarily for me - ebay says it's not allowed. Scary because they could apply this logic to about half of my listings, but it's just this 1 badge that has been singled out. I have appealed which has not been upheld, i just don't know what to do about it. The appeal rejection doesn't even give me any ideas of how to fix this, or how to word it or any help at all. I called and the lady i spoke to was no help either. This could affect my business exponentially, and my ability to continue with it, it just wouldn't pay if i can't sell new items that are made for replacement parts. Does anyone have any ideas or advice ?
