Dino's selling EVH Camo..

[Dino]

Hey its DINO! You wouldn't happen to have brought Ron with you by any chance? I havent seen or heard from him in a while

I just saw one of Ron's old threads revived and was thinking the same thing.

Does eBay ever mention anything about your item being reported by another member? Just looking through the ebay guide, it's as easy as "someone" clicking report: policy violation, keyword violation (misleading brand - EVH, Charvel, etc.) Also, eBay is more likely to end an auction or issue a warning if you've violated in the past.

Given the fact that other auctions continue with the same Brands listed in the Title - such as: evh frankenstrat replica - without being yanked leave me no choice but to agree with you that you're being targeted.

You should try listing a plain start with a bunch of EVH keywoords to see if runs to the end without a violation.

Lou,
eBay never mentions that it was reported by another member but I would have to guess that this is how the "system" works. I don't believe eBay themselves, seek out auction violations unless maybe a seller is a habitual offender (which I am not).

I don't take it personally as my eBay username isn't "DinosGuitarWorks" or anything that could identify me as "me" (until I posted this ). It's more likely the guitar that grabbed someone's attention, whether it be ELVH, a fellow builder who has had similar auctions shut down, or maybe even a seller who currently has an EVH guitar (Art Series, maybe) up for auction and doesn't want mine listed as competition.

Yes, I believe the auction was targeted.
