The only way to get rid of it is to get rid of the item in your watch list,(I've reduced my watch list to two from the ten

 

odd items that I used to have in it for that reason).

 

I hardly use the watch list now for items that I may buy as it's just to annoying,stubborn_smiley_by_mirz123-d4bt0te_zps12f1a5a3.gif

 

Facebook has done a similar thing by putting items from your groups as suggested items in your news feed,(I

 

would not buy a single item that they have shown me as none match what I search for).

 

So I've reduced the number of groups that I'm part of due to their interference.

 

To me it's junk and spam and it shouldn't be on any site.

Facebook group notifications can be turned off from your feed.

 

If random items still appear, you can check hide and then hide all from this group.

 

The most annoying eBay ones cannot.  Even if you select NO NOTIFICATIONS on the mobile app.

I have that in place.

Nope,they've changed that to the x,(Remove) to get rid of it in your current feed but another add will appear

 

in your next feed,(I presume in response to people doing the : hide all from this group.

 

It's Spam so I don't want to see it,(it should have a spam option so that it can be reported).

I used to buy on a fairly regular basis but haven't bought anything for over two months now as I find their

 

interference to annoying,(not many items in my watch list means not many items I may want),Who knows.gif

Facebook posts have reporting links to report spam. 

 

If the option to report is not one of the immeadiately available options, then you need to select hide post, you should then get an option to report the post. 

 

These options are on the top right corner of facebooks posts.
