Listing removed.

eBay removed a draw knife listing, there are a dozen for sale by private sellers, it's not a knife it's a woodworking tool. How do I sell it?

Do you have a credit card registered on your eBay account?

For any bladed item sellers need this card registered.

Unless this is actually a banned item, I'm not sure but your eBay message will tell you this. Those you see listed may have slipped the net, with 7 billion listings on eBay just not possible to check each and every one. Or , are they being sold by international sellers, say American where rules are different to here.

It's not a banned item, it asks me to resolve the issue. There are two choices change the listing or delete it. I can't do either it won't let me.

It's very frustrating I agree, but to see others listed is not a sign that it's allowed.

Those sellers may not be based in the UK, rules in the States for example, are different to here.

Or, simply the listings have slipped the net , with over 7 billion listings on at any one time, every listing cannot be checked, so some invariably become listed.

Yours was spotted and reported. A cancelled listing cannot be removed, it will disappear automatically probably in 90 days.

eBay messages never explain an issue fully or correctly, if it doesn't give exact information how to relist this item, it's best not to, and try and sell it somewhere else.
