Listing Removed

I have had my listing removed because it had a copyright word in it that is not allowed, I was selling a none original phone charging cable but it had a word that is copyright to the manufacturer, if I remove the offending word would I be able to relist the item as unbranded ?

It's alright to sell unbranded items, as long as you don't use a brand name to describe them (keyword spamming).

But if it's a non-original charging cable, how does it come to have the original manufacturer's copyright wording? The sale of counterfeits, i.e. items marked as being a brand that it isn't, is not allowed on eBay or anywhere else.

Do NOT risk listing it a second time if it could be reported again for removal. It wouldn't take many reports for copyright or brand name abuse to put your selling account at risk.

the item was a none original charge cable which I used the word Lightening in the Title and not the word Apple so had no idea that it was a copyright word,but having returned to search what others are using I can only say that mine was only a very minor infringment compared to other listings who are even the selling the same item as I was, but my reason for asking is can I relist if I remove the offending words so as not to infringe copyright words .
