We also don't allow listing or products for items that enable or encourage people to make copies of copy-protected items.
Policy overview
Sellers can't list any items that enable people to duplicate copy-protected materials like Blu-Ray, CDs, DVDs, video games, software, or any similar media format. Also, sellers can't encourage the use of items designed to bypass copy-protection measures.
Activity on eBay is required to follow this policy, the eBay User Agreement and all applicable laws, as well as respect the rights of third parties. If it doesn’t, eBay may take action consistent with applicable laws and the eBay User Agreement, and may even be legally required to do so. Such actions may include, as an example only: Removing the listing or other content, issuing a warning, restricting activity or account suspension.
What are the guidelines?
Not allowed
Some examples of things that aren't allowed:
- Hardware that lets people duplicate copy-protected video game cartridges
- Ripping software that lets people duplicate copy-protected CDs or DVDs
- Software or books that describe how to bypass copy-protection codes on CDs, DVDs or other media
- A book on how to copy a copy-protected DVD
Why does eBay have this policy?
We require our members to follow all laws and regulations. Since the duplication of copy-protected materials is against the law, regulated, or may cause harm to our members, sellers can't list items on eBay that encourage such duplication.
