I tested a suspected Gameflip listing bot with an unreleased game — it copied it anyway
I think I finally have a test Gameflip can't easily dismiss.
For months, another seller has been mirroring my store: I add a game, change a price, or remove a listing, and their store follows shortly after. Sometimes within minutes.
So I created a pre-order/unreleased game listing that isn't even playable yet.
About 5 minutes later, the same game appeared on their store at a lower price.
I have also caught their listings using the wrong titles/images and copying discontinued products.
I've reported this for around 4 months under Ticket #1195495, but Support keeps looking at the seller's sales pattern instead of the listing creation/API activity I'm reporting.
Gameflip mods: please take a look at the evidence and have the appropriate team check the backend logs. I'm not asking anyone here to decide if it's a bot — Gameflip can verify that from its own records.
Has anyone else experienced this?
