I still can’t understand how the folks at Zippo work and what problems they have. Some of my listings have been active for a long time and generate sales, while others get reported to me as an alleged intellectual property violation.My Zippos are original, just hand-modified and resold. I have tons of listings and you can’t even file a proper appeal. What am I supposed to show them so they’ll reinstate my listing? Since when is it forbidden to buy an original Zippo, customize it by hand, and resell it? You can do this with any official brand and nobody should have a problem with it.I need help with this — I’m leaving a photo of my Zippos here so you can give me your opinion.
