I understand wy ebay say's it is spam..
You sell regency style dresses and not a dress from the movie.
And the dress is also not from Jane Austen.
But you could say Jane Austen style in the discription of the item.
But it is a bit weird that they are sending this now.
It happends so often that people use a movie title to sell their costumes.
And it makes it very difficult to get the right people to see you auction.
But on the otherhand maby people will do a little more research if they
want a dress in style of a perticulary book or movie.
Not that I think that will happen.
How many times people asked me to make a medieval dress and alway's
start with telling me they want a hoopskirt.....

Keyword spamming is not permitted on eBay. This typically occurs when
members place brand names or other inappropriate keywords in a title
or description for the purpose of gaining attention or diverting
members to a listing.
* Use of Brand Names: Our policy does not permit members to include
any brand names in the listing title other than the specific brand
name used by the company that manufactured or produced the item being
offered in the listing.
* Custom-made items: Although an item may be fabricated to visually
match a specific product line of a recognized brand name, members are
not permitted to include the name of the product line, or the related
brand name in the listing title.
* Use of Celebrity or Artist Names: At present, our policy does not
permit members to include celebrity names, or the names of artists,
authors, or other known figures in the listing title other than the
specific celebrity or known figure that has created, written or
officially endorsed the item being offered in the listing. From the
perspective of our policy, celebrity names are treated as being
synonymous with brand names.
This means that although a celebrity may have worn a similar item, or
made such an item popular in current pop-culture, members are not
permitted to use the names of these celebrities or known figures in
the listing title.
Our policy permits a seller to use *one* name as a comparison within
the subtitle or description section of the listing.
