Ebay Listing cancelation question?

[Taipan]

Do ebay cancel a listing only if somebody reports it? Had a notification saying the item I bid on was cancelled due to listing irregularities? yet all the chaps other listings are still available?  which begs the question? has somebody just reported this one item as I cant see ebay checking thousands of adverts? btw item in question is not bmx related it was a pressie for the mrs  so what do you know guys?

Some items are on Ebay's hit list to remove when they get listed due to copyright infringement. There are some BMX items that get removed or have to go through the process when you try to list them, at the owner/copyrighters request.

What was the item   Was it something branded that may have been counterfeit

It was a dress not a top make or designer just something you could probably get in say? Next

but I can say that I've found out if you report an item it is then brought to there attention so they will remove it provided you have breached there ever changing rules? Funny enough tho it has been proven also that if the item is questionable but has reached a large sum of money it isn't getting removed? cos the buggers are making money so choose not to remove it??
