(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I enlisted my Playstation 3 on ebay, with an external hdd. After the price had been bidded up about 30 dollars, I get an email saying that I had violated copyright, and that my ps3 was taken down. The message read

At first I wasn't sure if this was a phishing email, so I go to ebay, and sure enough... My item was taken down. I see people all over ebay selling ps3s with copyrighted games and movies but they're still up. Why was mine taken down? How can I sell mine without it being taken down?

I sell ps3's on ebay & I will normally list what is installed on the machine, then if I offer an external to be included, I will say that I am also including an external drive with lots of extras (Contact me directly for more info) then I include an email, skype, Kik & textnow this way they have alternate ways to contact me outside of ebay to discuss questionable material hope this helps...

Thanks for the information. Much appreciated, will try again.
