Toilet Paper auctions

[digs_iowa]

There goes your reputation...Toilet paper selling for $12,000, $8,000, etc. and $15 for one square. What a ridiculous thing to allow on your site. What a joke. eBay is now the page for anyone who wants a laugh. There goes your credibility as a trusted, respectible site!!!

search the sold listings, I can't imagine that every single one of those was not paid for. There are alot and yea maybe some didn't pay, but not every single one. There are too many and all the prices are high in my opinion along with the shipping price attached to some. It is ridiculous. You have to agree after seeing how many there are that no one has paid for any of them. Check for yourself.

I think it's funny how all of the people buying all of the tp, hand sanitizer, and all stores have decided not to accept returns. So they will get stuck with it anyway. No one is going to pay those prices and Amazon has already forbade the selling of toilet paper and hand sanitizer over actual cost.

Of course, eBay gets money from sellers like me, but I wouldn't be outlandish and do something like this. I don't know what happened to humanity, but capitalism isn't based on buying up everything so others can't have it and mark it up 1000% over cost when a pandemic is here.

I absolutely agree.  Did you see the post someone made earlier about this being a Capitalistic free country to do what we want and sell to make the most money we can get?  Speaks volumes on so many, many levels......

They are paying $78 fr 4 rolls!!

I received a message that those sellers will be blocked from such items. That's so sad in times like this that people are so thoughtless. I hope people aren't falling for these scams. Stay well and safe.

Exactly!  There are no options to report these things in their drop down menus on "report this listing."  We know who eBay cares most about--eBay.

There is. They added it on Thursday or Friday. It is under illegal activity. Price gouging.

Thanks!

yes in a way it helps people get what they need. Even if they are paying more for it. Some people don’t care about the price 

[bingo1946]

How is it price gouging when it’s an auction and people choose to bid? 

People are needing tp in certain parts of the United States. 

They are choosing to bid and make payment.

Absurd. Why not just offer the kid at the supermarket $20 to put a pack aside for you? Loons selling and loons buying.

[soh.maryl]

Again, basically, how do you determine whether or not these were paid?

Just by guessing?

good morning everyone. 
I slept poorly last night, thinking about my kids and grandkids, my neighbors, my friends, the checkers at my local grocery store. Sigh. 
Could anyone stand a little humor? 
I can. 
Bring it on!

I need a laugh...
