    thats just so wrong! all items listed under 'childrens' clothes.. they are all shot in a provoctive way... how can that be right?? her 'get to know me page' would lead a bidder/ buyer to think that they would get to met / get to know the seller!!!!
    and who would pay those price's for second hand clothes???????????
    Life is like a box of chocolates........

    I'm in agreement that that ebay listing is extremely dodgy and should be removed.

    However, my wife is an HR amin. She's obviously over 18. Can't help wondering if "Worn secretary skirt" would get a bit of cash... :idea:

    (/jk)

    The trigger words are usually 'air hostess' or 'nurse'.

    However all of these listings are against ebay rules , although the evidence here seems to be that ebay really don't seem to care.

    I'm not saying people should be locked up for buying second hand clothes, thats not my point.
    I just think theres something wrong with people buying this sort of thing when they can go and get brand new school girl unforms or whatever for far less money if they wanted to . it's the fact that she has put worn and what people are willing to pay that is worrying me as it does show sexual inclinations. Why the heck would you pay a fortune for a pair of worn bras, skirts, shoes etc. It's because it's come from a schoolgirl maybe???
    Now that is peverted!!!

    must have missed the underage bit because i didnt see any thing implying she was under age?

    and i think saying a person who buys used womens clothed should be locked up is much more telling of what kind of you person are

    I am a very nice person thank you very much. Theres nothing wrong with buying used womens clothing at all.
    This girl is not a woman, she is a child.
    Why are you defending this person and having a go at me?
  • On her about me page shes put "my worn stuff, some of it smells" uuughhh just wrong and shows she is not actually washing the clothes to comply with ebay rules as she states!!! Its soooo obviously being sold for the wrong reasons, ebay should be right on top of this!!! Ive reported it -so have several others why has it not been taken down yet!!!????

  • at the top of the item description box there isa link that says "report item" click on it and it will ask you the reasons you are reporting it. (i put prohibited items, then offensive)

    Ok thanks for your help. It maddens me how these things are allowed and others get chucked off for no reason.

    I know, you read so many accounts on these boards by genuine decent sellers getting a hard time from ebay over nothing and yet people can put up multiple listings like this!!!
