They also have these:
Then you have these :
A hint is that only 8 of those are genuine listings.
Then you have these that appear on a regular daily basis:
I've reported the current one and if you look at Sold listings you'll see the top 6 listings which are all scam
listings,(BIN's betwen the $120 and $130 mark)

I know - having taken a good look - re this post.
Gosh & golly gee - reports, reports & they are all still there.
Suppose what are they called - eBay Trust & Safety etc - ( probably some-one's birthday) so are all out doing 'Happy Hour' or 'Hours".

Gee, that some seriously bad feedback for the ipad scammers! Then there's this moron who ran a heap of test listings and also tested his feedback, possibly by getting friends to bid on his test items. In the course of the feedback testing he's trashed his feedback rating!!! 271569071316
The rainbow rose scam, there is one seller from Hong Kong who states in their listing that the rose they send is a particular variety of white rose and gives instructions on how to split the stem and put each split into a cup of coloured dye. At least they're being up front about it, unlike the others who are implying the rose grows that way. Mind you, the instructions are way down in the description, so whether people read that far is anyone's guess.
I wonder how many people leave positive feedback for their rose purchase, only to discover months/years later that the rose is white and there is nothing they can do about it? The seeds wouldn't have germinated before the feedback cutoff hit.

Seems they're in no hurry to clean up that lot !!

Certainly looks that way! I think may have got sick of getting reports from me, I did send of quite a LOT! Probably around 300 LOL ๐

Hahaha, yeah and instead of worrying about items that clearly violate their policies (when it suits them that is), they'd rather waste their time worrying about things like a bike bell in what they deem to be the wrong category - like that's going to offend someone !!
I've never really understood their stance on Categories - I get why there needs to be categories of course, but where you look is very much the opinion of the Buyer anyway isn't it ? Maybe the new categories will make it easier and more defined, but I often find when I'm looking for things they can be in several categories & they all seem to be appropriate / relevant categories to me.

I hope we get new categories that are similar to what they have in the US. They have far better sub catergories than we do, not just for the items I buy/sell, but for lots of others too.
