catalogue abuse
Just listing a book published in 1941 in England. There are 15 copies available on Amazon. Of these, 11 are from sellers based in Turkey; of the remaining 4, 2 are listed on Companies House with Turkish directors. Is that in any way possible or legitimate, or just a flagrant abuse of Amazon's catalogue? There is also a modern reprint - 2 copies available: 1 from Turkey and 1 from a Turkish-run UK company.

@Seller_mxez2L8QjE6WW - you're so right, and many of we booksellers have seen the surge in Turkish run businesses/sellers. How do they even get hold of all these vintage books ? - and definitely feels like catalogue abuse.

Hello @Seller_mxez2L8QjE6WW,
Thanks for reaching out. If you feel that a seller is abusing policy, you can report it through the Report a Violation tool or there is a Report an Issue option on the detail page where you can add information on what you feel is wrong with the listing and they will investigate your concern.
I hope this is helpful.
