Have 73 magazine paper ads that are now supressed?

All our Rolex watch paper magazine Ads were flagged or supressed by the system…so now there are a total of 73 paper magazine Ads (including the Rolex Ads) currently supressed and not shown for sale.

How can we have these magazine ADS made active again? can they be edited in Batch to remove any word or phrase that is deemed offensive such as cat food coupon ad, tobacco pipe ad, hearing aid device Ad and now Rolex Ads? please advise how to have these items reviewed and approved to be listed for sale once again. Thank You…any assistance in this matter is very much appreciated.

yes can be batch edit….but you will need the “exact wording” to remove it which may not be the same for every ad

Contact bonanza directly through the "Help " menu. Explain the problem that you are net selling the items, only the vintage ADS for the items.

Rolex is one of those names that is a VeRO (Verified Rights Owner).
Like the word velcro and you are not allowed to use it.

Contact bonanza..may take a few conversations going back and forth to “fix” the items and get them re-activated.

…Had a few pulled not to long ago (In my case apparently if a television show was an Emmy Award winner the term Emmy could not be used on the DVDs I was selling)…once the “word” was removed the items were reactivated

actually this post might even get pulled for using the “word”

Thanks to all who responded. I will send a work request to Bonanza as suggested and hopefully all the Ads can be relisted or revised to meet the requirements. Thanks! Appreciate it!

We just had the same thing happen on both our booths! Probably had a couple hundred Rolex advertisements pulled! Crazy! Tried contacting Bonanza, but all I got was a canned response that they were responding to a cease-and-desist order.

Let us know if you have any success getting your ads re-instated! (and if so, let us know how!) By-the-way… I like your booth! You’ve got some great ads/postcards!

unfotunately you will have to remove the word (s) in the cease and desist order to reactivate the ads

On a site which no longer exists, I had somewhat the same problem with a book title. I learned something that might – or might not – be helpful. Those programs are monitored by robots. If I did not use the word in my copy, but used a picture of the item prominently displaying the book title, it was no problem, so perhaps that might be a workaround. I simply don’t know.
