Since there's an Ebay guy on here, maybe he can explain why ebay allows so many counterfeit items, unauthorized reprints and illegal replicas to be sold on their platform. They certainly don't respond to reported items. They want their cut I guess.

ROB EBay told me it is because they are under staved at the place that is reason they do not take down Bad Items

I've been told that as well. What a convenient excuse that is for them. One that benefits them financially. Why have a report item feature then? And why are they understaffed? Because they don't want to address the problem most likely.

I'll take down bad items for them for a nominal fee.

They're not understaffed so badly that they don't remove items from companies that aggressively protect their trademarks, patents, copyrights and intellectual property! Try selling a fake piece of Tiffany jewelry and see how long it lasts. If Topps put the pressure on Ebay would magically find the staff to deal with it.

I've actually had talks with people who do work for Topps who could get words to the right ears, to no avail.

Just because someone is a member doesn't mean they will ever post. I am quite sure my contact won't be posting but they are welcome to if they want to. I think ebay is definitely understaffed. As a law enforcement person once told me, they (ebay) don't make money fighting fraud. I am just thankful for my one contact.

They are understaffed by choice though so this is just an excuse. If EBAY truly wanted to correct this problem and provide a better service for their customers, they could easily hire more people. Last I checked they made 10 billion in net revenue last year.

Default Heritage Lots on Ebay.

Have these auctions been taken down? I tried using the eBay lot numbers mentioned but I am coming up with nothing. Can someone email me or post a link to one of the auctions?

Thank you.

They have all been taken down since yesterday. There were 2 that sold so you might be able to find them. Not sure though..

Just asking, and not accusing....

Is this the same eBay Seller?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-1948-B...EAAOSwxSFdkY1p

The only reason I ask is that this item ended literally minutes ago in Lelands Pop-Up Auction. Now it is on Ebay, with a Buy It Now or Best Offer price. There is no way the seller is in possession of this item, as I was bidding on it a couple of hours ago in Lelands.

I wouldn't post if I were him either...at least not openly as the Ebay guy.

And rightfully so, He is one in a million. Every time I have had to call e-bay, you get the Philippines phone bank center. IT is disgusting.

You have a better chance of winning a game of pick up sticks with your butt cheeks than to speak with someone that can actually help you.

Understaffed with American workers as there are NONE. You will never get to speak to one in yours or my lifetime. Reason #370 you should not do business with them. It's another addition I need to quit.....AGAIN

You need to get in with eBay's "Concierge Service". Sounds like a joke, but it's a real thing. Somehow I was lucky enough to get into this segment (perhaps because I buy too much), and now Customer Service is a breeze. They're all Americans who speak the language clearly, can actually understand, and effectively resolve problems. And the time on hold is about 1/8 the typical wait time.

But I agree about eBay's regular customer service... once you hear that undeniable Philippines accent, you may as well hang up. It's like pulling teeth to get any problem resolution.
