I don't think Ebay would pull your listings because of an Auctiva link.
I pulled up some of your completed listings (if it is indeed you, your user name is the same) and found a link to your dot com site...
""or Visit my STORE at
www.flowersbygenevieve.com""
THIS is what is not allowed - no links to external sites, where the buyer may purchase there rather than on Ebay.
Since I can't see the listings that are gone, I'm guessing that if you had this link in them, that's the reason they were pulled.
Beautiful flowers, BTW.

www.flowersbygenevieve.com
It's very simple really...Your dot com link is NOT allowed, it is NOT an Auctiva link.
Your Auctiva link can be found by clicking on Store at the top of the page...the link you will see there IS allowed. You can use that one with no problems
Hi member_8880,
FYI:
The link "flowersbygenevieve" was referring to is actually just a link to her Auctiva store, for which she purchased a custom domain. Since her Auctiva store only displays her listings that are active on eBay at any given time, according to eBay's "Links Policy", that specific link actually should be permissible. In this case, the eBay employee who removed her listings assumed the link was prohibited without thoroughly investigating the contents of the associated site, which eBay eventually acknowledged.

Hi Mike,
All I can say is....how typical of ebay. Even their employees don't know how it's supposed to work *sigh*
