I am a PowerSeller that just got suspended from Ebay for 14 days for having adult material in my auction pages. My purpose here is not to plead my case. However, just a note that one of the auctions they objected to was Spartacus. There was no nudity, no sex, and all DVDs are mainstream sold all over Ebay. Kirk Douglas was kissing Jean Simmons in one picture I had although not in bed.
I will switch to Yahoo for the time being. I transferred the info and created a new batch of one for Yahoo. Everything seemed to work fine except after launching, I received an error in "Pending". It said the data was unexpected and to contact auctionwatch. I usually put up 300 auctions a week.
I wanted to put up 50 to see if Yahoo works although it looks dead.
Can you check the auction "2 Days in The Valley" now sitting in pending and tell me what Ebay allows that Yahoo doesn't, and where mine misses the mark? Is it too big an auction? Mine tend to be complicated with a lot of HTML.
Any suggestions as to venues I can try that have been doing well?

Hi Forceten32,
Your auctions look fine for Yahoo. However, Yahoo is requesting that you verify additional information before you launch these auctions. The simplest way to get through this would be to go online and try to launch an auction directly on Yahoo. During this process you will be asked additional questions. After you have verified the information, you can come back to AW and attempt to launch the auctions again.

Hi Brian -
I posted a couple of auctions on Yahoo. But when I try to post from AW Pro, I get too a too many images message. Yet the same auction goes right through posted directly. As images, I am counting all jpg's & gif's but not the clickable banners at the bottom for Yahoo Direct, AW etc.
In any event, why is an auction OKed if direct but the same one rejected on AW?

Hi forceten32,
When you post directly, you don't use all the images that you would when you post through AW. For instance, our banners will count when posting from AW.
