More details to this question:
I got a letter a law firm 'Kilpatrick Townsend' who claims to represent Apple inc. They claim that I am infringing on Apple by selling "USB wall power adapter" on my ebay store. All items I sell is clearly marked as unbranded/generic and states it's not endorsed by Apple. Should I response to their letter? Can they legally sue on this claim? How should I response?

I'd bet that it's not copyright but trademark infringement that's involved. Whether their claim is valid or not can't be determined from the little that you posted.
