Millions seek entrepreneurs want to sell things on eBay. eBay is the # 1 Home Business opportunities in the world right now, it is natural that many are looking for a very profitable re-sale on eBay. Nevertheless, it is important to know that there are some topics that are not sold. Here are a dozen of them …
Some items are copyright infringement and could actually land seller in federal prison:
1st Knock-offs of music, TV shows or movies. “Pirates” films, for example, often from people who saw the movie camera recently released film, which allegedly by Crouch behind the seats and crummy copy. This is a great production of these products in the U.S. in Asia, where laws are invalid.
2nd Software and computer games also can be copied and their sale was illegal under all laws of the United States.
Of course, these questions can be sold, if you have a copy legally purchased and you no longer want.
3, the so-called “mirror” for the market handbags, sunglasses and designer clothes, of course, are prohibited, although these issues are often in physical stores around the United States. Ironically, if at eBay Live in New Orleans in 2004, we have found a shop in one of the famous markets selling replica handbags which are not allowed on eBay.
4th Lazy and less than honest sellers often steal copyrighted material from other providers. This happened to me many times and eBay has a program called Vero (Verified Rights owner), the elimination of crime auctions, although it appears that there is no punishment for the seller, which is unfortunate.
5th sale of alcoholic beverages is not permitted, although beverages “container”, especially wine, may be sold to their cost.
6th cigarettes, cigars, snuff, do not smoke or coupons for the item is not permitted on eBay.com.
Rules Ebay collecting snuff tobacco and alcohol containers are the same:
* The price point for the collection of packaging, not in the wine / snuff themselves.
* For a list of descriptions indicate that the package was not opened, but that the twine / to snuff, not intended for consumption.
* The collection of snuff containers should not be available at any retail outlet, as well as the packaging must have meaning, well above the current price of wine / snuff in the package.
* Dealers must take steps to ensure that the buyer of these collectibles is at least 18 years
7th firearms is strictly regulated by law and the U. S. They can not sell on eBay.
8th Satellite and cable TV decoders, which are prohibited by the Federal Trade Commission.
9th Livestock and wild animals can not be sold, including stuffed birds and pelts of endangered species. Do not restrict the sale of ivory, tortoiseshell, fish and other marine animals and other objects in connection with the animals. This area is very complex, and all the seller must thoroughly understand the various laws that are in those sales.
10th Event tickets are state government laws, a complex distribution. In some states, for example, forbid anyone to more than a few dollars profit (profit or not) for the resale of tickets. For example, Florida law states that tickets could be resold at no more than nominal value plus $ 1. In these states, these rules apply only to the buyer and the seller is in a real case, it means that if the seller lives in Florida, could not take advantage of selling tickets to events in Florida. However, if you live in one of the other 39 states, this restriction does not apply.
11 List of catalogs of goods that the seller offers for sale is prohibited. Only catalogs legally sold on eBay are like collections, like the old “Sirs sulfuric or Montgomery Wards catalog of memories, and it gives no actual product to sell.
12 Raffles and prizes are 100% banned. According to eBay, for example, stocks heavily regulated and illegal in many states in May.
There are other types of goods, the seller can not sell on eBay, so check eBay standards before anything else. This is much better to know the rules before the money, which can not be recovered.
