Your email advertising headed "Don't break your Nan's heart is offensive. I was recently devastated by the loss of my grandmother. Many members will have lost both their grandmothers and your cheap adverytising stunt is insensitive and it dirties your brand.

Hi china, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your Grandmother. It's horrible when it happens. . You may want to write a letter to ebay about it. Ebay dont read these Boards. I'm sure it wasn't meant to be personal though. Hope 2015 is a better year for you ๐ ๐

I agree, it is thoughtless and insensitive. It doesn't matter when a person might have lost both grandmothers, ebay should have given it some thought. I would hazard a guess that nearly every ebayer over the age of 65 would have lost both grandmothers by now. If you then want to lower that age by 5 years it would still be a large percentage and keep going down 5 years at a time and you will find that on average a lot of ebayers would have lost their grandmothers.
They are fools.

First time poster on this board.
Just about to make a thread about this.
I was disgusted by ebay trying to emotionally blackmail me to get my attention so I am outlining how this can backfire:
I unsubscribed to ebay newsletters.
Thanx for the advice but she died so I don't need to worry about it.
