INFRINGEMENT
CLB Sports actively participates in eBay's VeRo program, which protects the rights of intellectual property owners, and we frequently review items on eBay claiming to be authentic Steve Smith signed items.
If a product is deemed to fall into a category of infringment, we report it to eBay and they de-list that auction. If your auction has been de-listed at the request of CLB Sports and you feel there has been an error, please feel free to email the following information to info@clbsports.com for further review. Once your auction has been de-listed, we cannot refer back to it to obtain this information. Please include in your request, eBay Auction number, Seller ID, Date of Removal, Type of Item/Description, Origin or Item/COA Information and JPEG or BMP of the item clear enough to review.
If after further review, your item is deemed authentic, we will notify eBay to reinstate your auction.
We recognize that there are many items for auction on eBay that are not authentic. We are doing everything we can to de-list or shut down these auction and protect Steve Smiths' fans.
