So, I go to check on my auction of "Mohammed Ali aka Cassius Clay" autograph on a famous pic of him in the ring with the Beatles and it's gone. I got a message from eBay that Goat, Inc. aka Veros or Verisign or somebody () requested it be yanked because of copyright or trademark infringement. So I write them and say--so what mark or copyright is being infringed, and what is the registration #? They write back and say they are investigating a kind of influx of fraud Ali items and that copyright infringement is an eBay term, not theirs. (This item is 20 or so years old.) So I write back and say "so you are saying my autograph is a fake?" (Not to mention there are fakes sold all the time, but if mine is a fake what right do they have to have *my* "fake" removed?) NO response. SO I write again: So you think my item is a fake? No answer. I feel like I'm having someone jerking my chain, and that eBay could give a dang, because they are not writing back either! I can't wait until BidBay or somebody gets it together! Grrrrrr.

What paperwork? I'm not all that EbAY savvy, I never had a problem until like the last few weeks.
