Is this offensive to you?

I find it offensive, do you? Then again, does eBay?

ebay is basically a machine and is on a members trust basis, hence needs members to report for it to be looked at.

I find it crass and very distasteful. Low gutter humour.

Oh, i thought humans were monitoring listings. Silly me for being naive. Employing humans 24/7 might cost an extra $1000 per day. ebay`s CEO`s couldnt afford to sacarafice nearly .00001% of their income now could they.

Disgusting that ebay allows this type of listing. I have reported and others should do the same to get rid of sellers like this.

Your report must have been overlooked. LOL

No I don't find it offensive, you see much worse than that walking around on tee shirts all over the place. It actually quite amused me as it led me to try and imagine a taxi doing what was requested.

I agree with you Phorum. Sadly the word is used every day by a lot of people both male and female. I personally do not like it but I am also not a prude. In context and in some humour it can be funny. It can be like that waiting for a taxi at times.

The colour is offensive to me - ick

I don't know if offensive is the word I would use, but it is tasteless however anyone trying to get a taxi locally after midnight it is a word often used as the queue grows longer and longer and you can't get back inside the venue due to the midnight lockout.

How many listings do you expect them to have to monitor? It's not just new ones, they would have to check edits as well.

i dare say it would cost a lot more than $1000 per day, even in the Philippines. And the staff turnover would be horrendous.
