eBay policy.

Hello.

Can anyone answer this simple question?

If eBay have a “no offensive language “ policy, how on earth do they allow sellers to advertise “*bleep* It” items for sale?

I have reported one such item which was removed, however, there are still literally dozens of others sellers selling the identical product displaying the obscene and offensive word.

It’s a disgraceful and disgusting, eBay should be ashamed.

Cannot disagree there are many items offensive and others breaking selling regulations that you will see listed.

However, with over 7 billion listings on at any one time it's impossible for eBay to police and check every single listing, so they do rely on member reporting these too. These are then checked and if they do break rules, they are removed.
