|
It will probably come as no surprise to learn that eBay does not
allow Counterfeit Currency or Stamps to be listed. Under Financial instruments include paper money, coins, bonds, bank promissory
notes, money orders and negotiable securities as well as postage stamps. The Consequently, counterfeit items are banned from eBay. The only exception to this rule is for replicas that are clearly and
indelibly marked as such with the words “copy” ”reproduction," or "replica"
so that there can be no reasonable chance that they could be mistaken for
genuine currency. If you suspect that a listing is for counterfeit items, you
should notify eBay through the Community Watch programme which is
specifically for the reporting of prohibited, questionable or infringing
items. You might also like to take a look at eBay’s main site Help for
the sections on Prohibited and Restricted Items and Counterfeit Items (ie including fake merchandise). You can get there via our
search eBay link page |
