Can someone please get this disgusting listing removed for "Pre-Owned Women’s stinky smelly sweaty rancid socks (worn for weeks)". Yesterday this seller had a listing for "stinky sweaty rancid used" underwear, which I looked for help to remove. Now today this nasty item is listed.
Thanks to anyone who can get this removed!

Find better things to do. Why don’t you try to have the counterfeit RayBan (nearly every pair on eBay is fake) sunglasses removed instead?

Not something I would actually shop for, but unless Ebay has this as prohibited under their policies, they won't remove it. This board is a user-to-user board and Ebay won't respond.

There is nothing in the rules against this. If you are offended do not look at it!!!

I'm not going to click on that link because eBay will plaster my home and search pages with "similar items" and send me e-mails letting me know that listing is still available.
But if you've already viewed the listing then you might as well view it again and use the report link that's on the listing page. The listing is a clear violation of eBay policy... however don't count on an instant take down. I've seen eBay reps here say that the team reviewing these things prioritizes human traffiking take downs over smaller violations like this fetish listing.
Editing my post to add a link to the policy:
https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/prohibited-restricted-items/used-clothing-policy?id=4281
Used underwear and socks are not allowed. Other used clothing must follow our policy.
We have a used clothing policy so buyers can be confident they’ll get clean, stain-free items when they buy on eBay.
Health and hygiene is also one of our top priorities, so our policy outlines why certain items can't be sold on the site.
What is the policy?
Activity that doesn't follow eBay policy could result in a range of actions including for example: administratively ending or canceling listings, hiding or demoting all listings from search results, lowering seller rating, buying or selling restrictions, and account suspension. All fees paid or payable in relation to listings or accounts on which we take any action will not be refunded or otherwise credited to your account.

Actually, it IS against policy. Used socks and underwear are not allowed, and all other used clothing items must be washed.

They would do better in an auction. I'm surprised they aren't sold by now. That stuff used to bring big bucks. 🦌🦌
But they are missing out by having a lousy description.

Uh, yes it is against Ebay's guidelines. https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/prohibited-restricted-items/used-clothing-policy?id=4281

Then report it with the "report" link on the listing.

What were you searching for that caused these items to appear?
01-14-2020 04:42 PM
Doing a quick google search for used women's socks it looks like these items are being sold mainly on posh mark & etsy you could message the seller letting them know that on that site they could make more money and find more buyers.
Gross but to each his own.

Bras are not considered underwear.
Odd.
I don't see women wearing them on the outside of their sweater, or wedding gown.

Maybe they're 'unmentionables' without being 'intimates'?
