How do I report price gouging?

How do I report hand sanitizer being sold for insane prices?

Maybe you should have thought ahead and stocked up on face masks. The corona virus has been in the news for quite some time. And "price gougers" didn't buy up all the masks, the panicked public did. If it wasn't for the ebay sellers, there would be ZERO masks available right now.

How do you contact ebay about them being a conduit for black marketing essential items? These are not banned items, but in a time like this ebay needs to consider their position in all of this. There are seniors and babies being deprived of essential items because these lice are exploiting the situation for personal gain. Is this something ebay wants to be associated with? Who can we contact to discuss this?

Except it encourages people to buy up all the product at stores so they can sell it at outrageous prices before others get a chance to buy it.

Ebay makes money based on sales prices. They are making money too! Terminate your account on ebay... never shop on their site again for allowing this. I plan on doing this ASAP!

I posted this earlier, but I will repeat myself.

eBay is actively ending listings that are related to COVID-19 Price Gouging.

If you wish to help eBay police the 1.3 Billion active listings, eBay employees have given guidance on how to report these listings (new guidance as of March 16)

All listings have a "Report Item" link.

On a desktop/laptop this link can be found directly above the description on the right

On mobile, the button is "Report this Item", scroll down past "About the seller"

Use the following Menu options:

Prohibited And Restricted Items
Illegal Items and items encouraging illegal activity
Other Illegal activity concerns

If only this worked on toilet paper too.

How about rubbing alcohol or any desinfecting alcohol. Check the insane prices! 

[teslastrike]

If reporting sales does indeed cause ebay to remove them, you do realize that instead of parents of infants and elderly paying high prices for that item, they will now have to go without the item completely. 

 Then pat yourself on the back I guess 🙄
