Q: Why was my auction terminated?

A: Your auction was terminated by eBay because we believe the item being sold was counterfeit and/or included an infringement of one or more of the Rolls-Royce trademarks. Given the nature of the Internet, decisions regarding the authenticity of an item are based upon the photograph and the description of the goods, as well as other less tangible aspects of the auction. Because we cannot physically see a product posted over the Internet, the information at our disposal as to the counterfeit nature of the item is limited. We spend many working hours trying to ensure that only counterfeit/infringing Rolls-Royce merchandise is removed.


Auction removed and a ban for repeated policy breaches.
30 day ban for selling a pair of real (i know they were real I bought them new from CMC) alpinestars gloves, that seem to infringe rolls royce trademarks.

Didnt know the 2 companys were related.

How odd, the P and the R looking like the Rolls Royce RR logo is the only thing I can think of, and thats incredibly tenuous.

More likely an ebay tech monkey clicked the wrong box for company maybe and 'Rolls Royce' should read 'Alpinestars'

Just a general descripton of the gloves and my usual terms and conditions.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Take a look at the VeRO programme run by eBay and you'll understand why this may have happened. It really could be because some graphics on the glove pictured bear some tiny resemblance to the RR logo. Rolling Eyes

eBay just roll over when a VERO member complains. Mad

Pretty much f*ck all you can do about it.
