I got banned once on ebay for selling counterfits of an item I never clamed the item to be, made sure to specify who the maker was and everything, even listed it in a fitting category for for the make, (the make which they said it was a copy of has it's own)
It was complete BS, but they have a "we don't care" policy.
After doing a lot of reading up on it, I learn that the only way to clear the ban was to wait it out, or contact the guy that reported my stuff as bootleg and convince him.. that he's a fucking blind moron.
I ended up waiting it out for a month or so, and to be able to resell again, they made me take this stupid tedious and insulting as hell test thing, most of which being questions that just say not to sell copyright bs, heavily implying I did so, and should feel bad for it.
What pissed me off the most about it, was that ebay completly ignores the ass tons of people that sell bootleg stuff out of china (like figs)
but aperinly, they only allow the copyrights holder to report items or some crap like that, meaning people that should get banned and forced to do that shit, don't, because copyright holders of Japanese things aren't going to be reporting anything on ebay any time soon.
What's more, I tried looking into ways of blocking chines sellers from search results, since almost all their crap is bootleg, and I found many of ebay users want and ask for the same thing, but it seems the guys running ebay are stupid duckweed's about it that wont put an end to it.
in looking that up, I leaned that many hongkong sellers pose as being British.
so you may want to keep a eye out.

I'm sorry but that's very far from the truth, maybe western sells, but scams and ripoffs are everywhere on ebay.
You say you're bought four items from ebay from different sellers?
Try 250+
I've bought items which sellers never shipped, I'd wait two months, get nothing, ask where the item is, and in the case of the last time this happened, they replied by just saying they aren't going to send it and would send a refund, two weeks latter, no refund and I had to open a dispute case about it.
I remember one close call a few years back, I bought a game off this guy selling bunch of new games for decent prices, and the games were legit and all, but once he got a decent feedback score for it, he sold a crap-ton of em and never sent em out, closed his account and ran off.
There are people out there they'll sell you a photo of an item you think t=you're getting.
people that sell you info on where to buy an item you think you're buying.
the list goes on and on.
I've also had half a dozen people buy my stuff but never pay for it.
