WotC not wanting altered cards to appear on eBay?

MC199 eBay Account Suspended: Trademark Violation - Unauthorized Item (XXXX)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Dear XXXX (XXXX),

Your eBay account is suspended for at least one year for violating our policy.

The rights owner or an agent authorized to act on behalf of the rights owner, Wizards of the Coast, Inc., notified eBay that this listing violates intellectual property rights. When eBay receives a report of this type of violation, we remove the listing to comply with the law.

It's against the law to sell fake or unauthorized copies of a brand-name product. It can also be misleading for buyers. So if the product you're selling bears the brand name or logo of a company, but it wasn't made or authorized by that company, you aren't allowed to list it on eBay.

Reason for suspension:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
MC019 eBay Listing Removed: (XXXX)

Dear XXXX (XXXX),

Thank you for your recent listing on eBay. Unfortunately, we removed the following item(s):

because Wizards of the Coast, Inc. reported it to us for violating their intellectual property rights. When eBay is notified by a rights owner of an intellectual property rights infringement, eBay must remove the item in order to meet certain legal requirements.

Questions about the specific violation should be addressed to Wizards of the Coast, Inc.

You can send an email to: marcella.allen@wizards.com

Altered cards are NOT a copy of the product but the product itself. bah...
