eBay brand protection
Monitor suspicious eBay listings with Valigard.
Valigard searches eBay for listings that reuse your product photos or your brand name, on ebay.com and eBay's national sites. It keeps each listing's page, price and seller, flags listings that come back, and prepares the information you need to file a Notice of Claimed Infringement through eBay's Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) program.

Reporting on eBay
How eBay handles reports.
Rights owners report through eBay's Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) program by submitting a Notice of Claimed Infringement, through the VeRO Portal or by email. Agents acting for a rights owner add a letter of authorization. eBay typically responds within one to three working days.

What Valigard finds
The copies worth looking at on eBay.
Valigard searches with your official product photos, so it finds listings that reuse them even when your brand name is nowhere in the title.
Copies sold as new
Listings offering copies of your product as new, often illustrated with your marketing photos.
Reused official photos
Sellers using your product images without permission, whatever they actually ship.
Your brand in their titles
Listings that put your brand or product name in the title to catch buyers searching for you.
Listings that come back
The same listing relisted after a removal. Valigard marks it as relisted when it reappears.

Valigard and eBay VeRO
VeRO handles the takedown on eBay. Valigard finds the listings worth reporting, on eBay's other national sites and on other marketplaces too, and keeps a timestamped copy of each page in case a listing changes or ends before eBay reviews your notice.
Valigard doesn't send reports
You file every report through eBay's Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) program, so the decision stays with you. Valigard makes sure you have what the marketplace asks for, and tracks what happens next.
FAQ
Questions about eBay.
Do I need to join VeRO to use Valigard?
No. Valigard searches and reviews listings without any eBay membership. To file a Notice of Claimed Infringement, you must be the rights owner or act for one, with a letter of authorization.
Does Valigard search eBay sites outside the US?
Yes. A worldwide search includes national eBay sites such as ebay.de, ebay.co.uk or ebay.ca wherever your photos appear. You can also limit a search to up to 10 countries.
What if the listing ends before eBay reviews my notice?
Valigard keeps a saved, timestamped copy of the page with its price and seller, and marks the listing as gone. If it comes back, it is flagged as relisted.
Can Valigard file the VeRO notice for me?
No. Valigard prepares the details and the text to send. You submit the notice through eBay, then log its status and case number in Valigard.
