I am having trouble convincing eBay that these should be pulled. Maybe if some others would also report them, some progress could be made. All are "Museum quality historical replica of ......" eBay policy specifically states; And I have been told many time this is a company wide policy and is not limited to USA. Here are the numbers.

As I first stated, "Pick a couple and go for it, please." I have a bit of an edge on most for reporting, but I usually report those twice a day.

Are you using this eBay address: http://contact.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAP...3a46b6&rcode=c7d8e9c4b298eff616b2159d03a4ea35 I use it to report slabbed coins when the seller only shows one side of the slab of pre-1980 coins. It works EVERY time.
That's crazy. Based on the rules, I don't see how the seller is getting by with this. Maybe not having replica in the title of the listing? I'll report a few. Wonder if folks in the UK reported them would make a difference?
It doesn't matter if the seller says replica in the title or listing somewhere. eBay's updated policy on selling coins, currency, and stamps: [TABLE="width: 100%"] [TD="class: tCell"] Not allowed [/TD] [TD="class: tCell"] Replica coins Counterfeit coins Counterfeit bank notes Counterfeit bonds Counterfeit money orders Counterfeit securities Equipment used to make counterfeit items Reproduction or replica versions of any Canadian currency Listings for raw single coins within the Coins: US category with a starting price, reserve price, or Buy It Now price of $2500 or more [/TD] [/TABLE]
You should create a database of found ebay auction ids and just automate the process of reporting them (perhaps make it report every 4 hours or so) until your script notices they were pulled or no longer available. What your asking is way too much manual work when it can all be automated.
Actually, you can report ten item numbers in one report. After you send the report for ten, click the browser back button, and paste ten new item numbers. Took me about 3 minutes to report the numbers in rlm's opening post.
So 3 minutes and then 3 minutes later in the day if you wanted to report them twice. If automated, could take milliseconds and people could spend more time finding more IDs to add to the database.
That tends to get them a bit upset. Been there and got the t-shirt. In fact, I think they even have some kind of program to ignore duplicate posts now.
When the same person gets umpteen emails from a single person, it tends to be rather obvious. BTW, there are only a couple/3 people taking care of coin reporting.
I agree this is ridiculous and needs to be stopped. The obvious problem is that the reporting you're doing is not working, regardless of the address being used. What can be done to aid this process?
The onliest answer I can come up with was for more people to report it - or maybe even someone from UK/Europe. I have spoken to several at eBay via their normal help line. Every one says they ought to be pulled, but they are not in this country so they cannot do it. Some suggested I log into eBay.uk and report it there. No help. I believe I am up to 3 who promised to get back to me, but I have not heard back from a single person yet, but I did get several email addresses. Maybe this was grasping at straws, but I thought maybe if many people would report them, they might be able to read into that they are not welcome. Maybe I am just tilting at the windmills. Won't know unless I try.
And thank you for your diligence in trying! I did report the ones from your latest list (easy to simply copy paste listing # into ebay's search bar). Maybe if other people will join us, we can get these pulled.
rlm... if you're not a member already, why don't you join the CFe Group? Be it as it may, this self-appointed band of numismatic brotherhood does, in fact, manage to get these type of listings cleaned up rather quickly.
