    I deleted those with uBlock. No adverts, no collections rubbish if thats still a thing?

    My ebay page looks bare, just the essentials.
    Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...

    Just scroll down to the bottom of any search page and eBay are promoting off eBay sales for the very item you searched for with multiple "off-site" advertisements. It is obviously REALLY IMPORTANT to eBay that you buy on eBay NOT!

    eBay get paid for those adverts and whilst they annoy those sellers who haven't blocked them they don't actually lose eBay any money :D

  • My OH had a warning from eBay, seems to be getting ridiculous now. They were discussing buying multiples off the seller and my OH actually said "can you send an offer using the button under this message", and the seller replied with can you text me on xxxxxxx. Got a warning!
