Summary
New eligibility rules for refurbished electronics: children's products prohibited; titles/descriptions must include "Refurbished," brand name, and device condition; devices must have release date within last 7 years.
Why it matters
Sellers listing refurbished electronics must immediately update titles and descriptions or face listing removal. The 7-year device age cap and children's product ban restrict eligible inventory and create compliance risk for non-compliant listings.
