This just in, Monday the 12th!
As I had suspected, it sounds like this message was sent by Google in error.
Here is the forum message from them acknowledging the boo boo and saying everything is going to be OK.
Original Post follows...
If you've setup your booth with Google Base, you probably got an email saying something to that effect at some point today.
We have already written an email to Google to get clarification as to what triggered these emails. Google respond within a couple business days, so I expect we'll hear back from them before too long.
If it turns out that they do want some change to how the booth feeds are formatted or whatnot, we'll make such a change our top priority. But at this point, folks not on Bonanzle are getting the message as well, so it may just be an erroneously sent email. We can't say for sure quite yet.
In the meantime, set aside the email and we'll send you instructions if it turns out that anything needs to be changed in your Google Base account.

Google Base Display Name Doesn't Meet Program Policies (Updated 1/12)
And in Other News
Thanks to everyone for making it a tremendously successful December at Bonanzle! Your word of mouth recommendations increased visitors traffic by more than 70% for a sixth straight month, making us now the third biggest eBay alternative online by traffic volume! How cool is that? TODO next blog: explain exactly what a Bonanzle "widget" is. :)<< Back

Here’s to an awesome 2009!
lol…Thanks for letting us know…I couldn’t figure out what they didn’t like about my “evesbooth” name (my other booth). How much simpler could the name be…lol…
Glad you guys are right on top of this, like I didn’t know you were
thanks for the update, and a speedy one at that! I just saw it and was wondering about it. Thank you for being so above and beyond great!
I got it too, just like everyone else, and was going to post a question about it…and then as I’m logging in and see the blog I find that The Boyz are already all over it first thing. AMAZING!
Fantastic news about the traffic stats too!! I knew it was gettin busy around here, just didn’t know exactly how busy. Again, AMAZING!
Thanks for keeping us informed, Bill.
Thank you for posting this, Bill. I assumed I had messed up something while setting up my Google Checkout account.
Yes, thanks for taking care of this, I have now received my 2nd email from
Google.
Received the email. thanks for the heads up, Hope it gets back to normal.. Great to be with Bonanzle.
Got the email also. What a great relief to come here and see that you’re already on top of this (natch!). Thank you so very much, Bill!!!!
I read my email after seeing the posts here in the forum and felt I could not respond last night . I did not have a clue.Then I opened my mail and had the same mail. It still had me a bit buffaloed? as to what was wrong? But so many also got this same email.
Hope there is a simple explanation!Good job Bonanzle!
Also forgot to post the fact that I have not done the Google feed from Bonanzle. I did attempt once but ran into a bit of an issue so I never sent it. Wonder how why I still got the email?
Thanks Bill! I DID receive a letter from Google today and will put it aside to see what happens. I have used Cheyenne2u for near a year now on Google Base and have had no problems – so I am stumped too! My feeds are up and running without any errors. Will watch to see what happens. Thank you for being on TOP of things – I really appreciate it! I LOVE Bonanzle and you Boyz ROCK!! Kim
Even if GB crapped out altogether we’re still on Oodle…
Got the mail, changed the name, got it again! But now, I’m not worriedThanks guys.

Thanks for the update Bill! Looking forward to the next blog on what a Bonanzle Widget is… I’ve already been playing with it … now just to be able to get it to post and work on something…I know its me doing something weird…
