Selling a clone
I have a clone of a Rolex watch that I want to sell. The listing has been removed, even though I stated throughout that this is NOT a genuine Rolex and also pointed out that it's illegal in the UK to pass it off as genuine. Can I sell this on eBay?

Mentor3 weeks agoIt's illegal to sell counterfeit items in the UK anywhere, so if it wasn't a genuine Rolex it would have been removed.

OP3 weeks agoYeah, but it's not a fake, it's a lookalike. And my listing makes it clear that it's not genuine.

Mentor3 weeks agoA lookalike/clone/fake/copy/call it what you want is considered to be a counterfeit of the brand.

OP3 weeks agoDoes that apply even when I make it very very clear that it's not a real one?

Mentor3 weeks agoIt doesn't matter how you describe it they are not allowed. If you relist it you risk getting your account suspended.
