Where to report a seller with porn magazines and barbie dolls in same store?

[krys888]

As a parent and grandparent, I have a real problem with this. Listing children’s toys and porn magazines in the same store is unacceptable. Did a search for a particular Barbie doll. Found one. Considered purchasing it. Looked to see what else the seller had for possible savings on multiple items shipping. I was disappointed to find among more Barbie dolls there were human porn magazines with extremely graphic covers. If ebay is allowing and promoting this mix of children’s toys and porn, I can’t sell here any more.

If anyone who seems okay with this wants the seller ID or screenshots, let me know, I’ll message it to you. Then come back and tell us you still think its not a problem.

Thank you for this. I reported it and they’re on it. Turns out ebay does NOT want children’s toys and graphic porn in the same store.

I cant post the screenshots as it would get me kicked off of here because they are so graphic. The. Covers are men giving each other oral sex and yes you can see everything.

Okay, that's clear enough. There is a link in each listing in which you can report it. You could also try contacting Customer Service with a couple of the listing numbers so that they can see them directly.

I didn’t want to click on anything because the stupid algorithms would have it in my search or something and start serving more of it to me. Gross. Ew. No. LOL. I did report via the link another commenter gave me.

When you happen upon something like this, report it. I would hope eBay fixes the issue.

I am a thinking adult. The OP stumbled on an offensive store and knows what they need to do. Had it been me, I wouldn't have had any questions, I would have reported it to eBay immediately. My village raised me well but did not direct me to join the eBay police.  Your efforts might be more productive if you helped the OP find a way to report this than picking my response apart.

There are currently 9,219 nude photos listed on the main ebay site for anyone and everyone to view.  Female and Male.  Ebay is too worried about masks and hand sanitizer to bother taking the photos down.

Ive been buying and selling on Ebay for over twenty years, and have never seen a nude photo..just lucky I guess. But Ebay is correct in removing gouging sellers..really has nothing to do with this thread.

I've come across them once in a while but it's the usual old boring 'female nude using fuzzy filter' - do art photographers have ANY other subjects? 

[bonjourami]

LOL..I guess not.

Naked people are not porn. We are all naked under our clothes. That’s why certain years of Playboy are not required to be in the adult category.

On the other hand, I'd be upset if barbie dolls kept showing up in the middle of my porn searches...

On a similar note, if I was selling porn, I'd definitely want that to be listed in the right categories, or I'd be toast. It would make no sense to have such listings turn up in the middle of some general-audience category where it would no doubt be reported immediately. I've seen plenty of sellers whose feedback shows a mix of mainstream products interspersed with private sales that could be adult-related, and as long as each of their listings is properly categorized, no one will object.

I'm guessing someone was reusing an old listing from a different category, and forgot to change the category while uploading the new XXX listing.

While I have no issue with the concepts... I'd had to create a new ID for them... I'd tick off WAY to many of my customers if they started showing up in my store right beside the WWJD bracelets...
