The email the other seller received is indeed tampering under eBay ToS.
(1) The writer may or may not have a valid point, if the seller is

Tanzania to get it that way which dilutes the writers argument.

However the seller doesn't fully disclose their source so I guess I

just reselling currently available sets.

There are lots of other items on eBay that have similar problems, it is
true. What exactly were you asking?  Your point isn't coming across very
clearly.

1 - and we all know that you're a big believer in strict adherence to
ToS.
