ILLEGAL SWITCHBLADES,BUTTERFLY KNIVES BEING SOLD !! SERIOUS EBAY RULES INFRACTION

[sweetpieces4you]

Why isn't anyone on EBAY going into the KNIFE area and TAKING these ILLEGAL WEAPONS OFF the SITE ??? Just because they are not LISTED as such knives doesn't MEAN THEY ARE NOT !! If EBAY doesn't know what these PIECES are ( ASK ME , I KNOW ) !!! You ( EBAY ) like to PREACH YOUR RULES but DON'T FOLLOW them YOURSELF !! This is a SERIOUS EBAY RULES INFRACTION and BY NOT DOING ANYTHING is PROMOTING THE SELLING of ILLEGAL WEAPONS !! .

   I reported these knives over 50x and YOU DO NOTHING !! And MORE and MORE are BEING LISTED because OF THAT !! And NOT a SINGLE PERSON is GOING to TELL ME WHAT IS and WHAT ISN'T ILLEGAL !! 😎😎😎

I want to tell on somebody.
Like Judy telling on the Beaver.
"Miss Lander, Beaver is not paying attention!"
Some people never outgrow it.

It's my observation that eBay may note a Report from a single member, that's all they will do because the member may be a competitor, or a vigilante or just plain wrong.

They do act when there are a lot of members Reporting a listing.  Which still might not mean taking it down, if all those members are wrong.

And they certainly act, if a brand owner, especially those who are part of the VeRO program complain.

Based mostly on complaints from sellers who have had items removed, short restrictions on selling accounts, and closed selling accounts.
