Selling a item

I've just listed a bicycle for sale and eBay are saying it's prohibited as it has a battery, however it's not an e bike and I haven't said anywhere that it is , I've sold over 100 items I have perfect feedback, I can't edit or even delete the ad or contact eBay

This must have been a bot operated vision / response.

 

Listing a bike will not get it removed.

 

Somewhere in your description you must have indicated  batter powered, and that triggered the response that you cannot list your item.

 

I wouldn't try and relist it on eBay, but try another platform for this item.

Six members have now complained of exactly this - the listings are clearly being rejected by AI or a human who doesn't understand the difference between a bike and an e-bike.

Please kat, can this issue be flagged?

I have never seen a post about this issue before, but 6 in two days suggests the fault lies firmly with Ebay and not with people trying very hard to sell on the site!
