Tan Bag In The Style Of Mulberry

For future reference can I ask - is it OK for sellers to say 'in the style of' or 'similar to' at all - or is this not allowed by Mulberry??
It's not okay with eBay, that's why you see lots of 'inspired' bags listed as 'celebrity style'.
This is what eBay say isn't allowed:
Brand names, celebrities or other product details can't be specified in a listing if you're not selling an item by those brands
For example, if you're selling a Coach handbag, you can't mention Gucci or other brand-name handbags.

Using the words 'compatible with', 'fits' or 'for' before a brand name in the title of your listing to describe items that are universally compatible or that are compatible with an entire product class

Using the words 'fits', 'for' or 'compatible with' before the brand name of jewellery and clothing items or accessories

Comparing the item you're selling to a popular product
For example, you can't say 'the Zune MP3 player is just like the iPod'.


Hiding unrelated brand names in a listing by using white-on-white text, tiny fonts or special HTML or JavaScript code

Misspelling brand names to try to circumvent the rules
For example, using a dollar sign '$' instead of the letter 'S' isn't allowed.

Promoting your other listings and naming brands in those listings
For example, you can't say things like 'Check out my other listings for Adidas, New Balance, Nike, and Puma shoes'.

Using a question mark '?' when you're not sure about the brand
For example, you can't describe an item as 'McCoy? cookie jar'.

Including multiple brand names in a title when they describe a subsidiary of a parent company
For example, you may not say 'Old Navy by Gap' in your title.

Describing a compatible item as 'comp'
Also:
Keyword spamming is when people use words or details (such as brands, item condition, model names, pop culture terms, product names, style and type) that have nothing to do with their items so that their listings will show up in search results. Since this clutters eBay and makes buying and selling more difficult, we don't allow keyword spamming
