There are a couple of things wrong with this post.
I am not sure where the item was stolen from. In one section it says from a coffin, in another from a grave. I am wondering if it was a toy or item placed on top of the coffin during a funeral, or on top of a grave.
I suppose someone could steal jewellery or special items from a coffin during a viewing, but think it would be unlikely at other times.
But it doesn't really matter what we think as it is speculation. The person making the post thought they were speaking direct to ebay.
I know it is an upsetting time but they needed to explain to ebay what the item number was, they needed to explain it was a stolen item and the circumstances and ask for help in tracing the ID of the thief & having the listing removed.
It can be really hard when you are angry or outraged, suffering grief, to take a deep breath and even write down the main points you want to make before you dash off an email or message. But that is what needed to be done, because as far as I can see, the person has not given ebay enough information to act on the problem, even if they wanted to.
The message is garbled. Richard may know what he is talking about but it is obvious that the rest of us are as confused as ebay reps would be. We haven't really got a clue exactly what he is talking about.
