I have been reading through the prohibited items and I see that OEM is on there.
Is this an open and shut case, no OEM software?
I have some McAfee Internet Security 2010.
Thanks

in short no oem software is allowed
In short, there are at least 25 OEM software items for sale while I'm typing this.
I have reported literally hundreds to EBid, who remove individual listings, but then let the seller carry on listing or leave multiple listings for OEM software by the same seller.
I have ended up reporting the site to Microsoft. I am a MS Authourised reseller and allowing this to go on seriously damages business.
EBid do 'the minimum' when you report OEM software listings and have shown NO improvement in dealing with it in six months.
Please contact support and clarify the user name you refer to. Thanks

no disrespect mark but quite a few of us are sick to our back teeth of reporting sellers for blantent breaches of listing rules only for them to be ignored by support.... I have reported sellers via report auction and with emails to support and nothing happens.....
in the last week I have reported someone for "selling" vouchers sent via email, another one had 112 pre order items (this one I reported under "other see comments"... shame no one read the comments as only the one listing I reported was removed) and another seller who is using their online e commerce website as a water mark on all their auctions.... not one of the reported sellers has had anything done about their listings (apart from the one listing being removed)
Months ago Gazza aske for help "policing" the site but why should we waste our time doing so if no one takes any action when we do.... I only do it now when I am bored and have nothing better to do, knowing full well that very little will happen.
What #5 said.
I've reported hundreds of OEM software auctions and at very best, you'll remove the reported item and leave the same user with 20 other auctions running. I got sick of doing it so reported you and the sellers to Microsoft. I've also written to you SEVERAL times over this issue and you've done precisely NOTHING about it.
You were quick enough to completely ban me for selling public domain items which are totally legal everywhere in the world except ebid, but you consistently allow OEM software sellers to break the law every day !!
It is your venue, you should police it properly.
Here is another example of an OEM seller who you've ignored several reports about. Auction number 23917237.
According to my email records, I've reported this 14 times. But there it is, still running and the member still selling. That's a joke. How can you ask members to police your site and then allow sales like that to continue anyway ?
Before you send a condescending reply about where the report button is, here's my advice. Get one of your staff to use your own search facility for 'OEM' and remove any software items and ban repeat offenders. Not rocket science really.
Can't think at the moment, but what is OEM software
