Ray, we haven't removed anyone auctions. We simply reported bootleg Michael Myers masks to Ebay. Was your auction for one of those illegal, bootleg masks? Can you please send me the name of the company that made the mask, the name of the mask and an image of the mask in question? That would be greatly appreciated and would really help to expedite your concerns.
Please have your attorney contact me in my office tomorrow morning at the number below. I should be in around 9 am PST.

I'm asking what proof do you have that my auction was, in fact, in any violation of any "bootleg??
You have disrupted my auction? What proof do you have to do such a thing? NONE!
I know who you are and the people you represent. You AND THEM have no right....
This is a personal matter and now shall be acted upon as such.

Ray, we only reported bootleg masks to Ebay we did not report anything else. What was the mask in question that was removed? If you cannot provide me with the information that I requested I cannot help you.
This is not a personal matter. This is a DMCA matter with EBAY. A site which has allowed the sale of unauthorized merchandise for who knows how long. These auctions were reported to us and we are now dealing with it.

My auction was a "A MICHAEL B. MYERS NIGHTMARE HALLOWEEN LATEX MASK "
I have detailed pics of the mask in question..
Please provide me with reason (PROOF) why my auction was ended..
You're telling me any Tom, ^^^^, and Harry can say "WHATEVER" and can have anyone's auction removed??? I don't think so.. You better have a very good reason my my auction was removed from a complaint by you...................... And it was by you, because this is the email eBay gave me...............

Magic/Rubies/Cinema Secrets/Illusive Concepts then it is not a licensed mask and has no place on a respected very public auction site such as Ebay. I don't know where you get your information from, but you are not correct. Changing the name of the mask will not stop the violation, it's still looks like and is a Michael Myers mask and therefore is a violation of Ebay's DMCA policy.
