Selling Replica Items on eBay as Aftermarket. Why is that legal?

if there are no trademark (brand names, patented items, etc.) you really can't prevent it.

If there is no branding / trademark, it is fair game. Also, on certain items, when the patent expires like on a bezel insert, etc, it is fair game as long as there are no brand name/logo's involved.

Depends on the country you're in. If you live in Germany you will get into trouble using such descriptions!

I recently saw an "Italian made" aftermarket "new Rolex SEL jubilee style" bracelet for sale on the bay and sold. It was definitely from one of our factories, but I liked the made in Italy reference.
