All About Pocket Knives

I was searching through eBay items and ran across this listing. I won't post the picture because I don't think it's appropriate. This is a pathetic seller with terrible feedback, and I would think eBay would have banned them long ago, but they remain viable and in good standing.

I did a search on eBay and actually the F bomb comes up more than 10K times in eBay titles and the variants are very prevalent. I used to think eBay had community standards and was family oriented. I don't think that is the case any longer, but rest assured you still cannot sell a switchblade on eBay.

I don't know how to report listings like this and I believe that eBay doesn't really care to allow you to do so. Lowbrow seller.

Sadly, eBay now is definitely not the eBay of just a few years ago. Hopefully the deterioration of "the Bay" is not completely indicative of our societal deterioration.

My own opinion is that eBay wants to make it very hard to report items and are content with letting AI do the heavy lifting. In order to report an eBay item, open the page and scroll to the bottom of the listing. Click on the question mark in the lower right. You are very limited in what you are able to report.

not entirely true https://ebay.io/m/f4eXJ3

….and eBay’s response to my reporting: “We looked into your report and didn’t find the listing to be in violation of our policy. This determination was made by a customer service agent.”

What a joke eBay has become!
Customer Service Agent = AI

Here's another one still up for grabs-
