    I think the most interesting thing about this listing is that eBay appears to have REMOVED the "Report item" link. At least, a search for "report" on the page returns nothing.

    Just in time for Christmas - wouldn't want anything to block us from buying lead-encrusted arsenic balls for the kiddies' Christmas stockings, I guess!

    On further research, it's just hidden:

    Click on that question-mark, and you get a popup that lets you report:

    I can't say I'm a bit surprised that eBay's reaction to "people are reporting too much illegal and dangerous stuff" is "if we make the Report button hard enough to find, maybe they'll stop bothering us".

    Too bad there’s no button to make fleaBay disappear…

    You can still report, but the auto bots reply 100% that this does not seem to violate our policy, EVEN WHEN IT DOES. (Like counterfeits, etc.)
    EBay is an absolute disgrace.

    It's a fantasy piece from Dan Carr, based on the concept "what if North America decided to form a union with a single currency like European nations and the Euro?"

    And when Canada, US and Mexico all have the same currency,
    it's the Amero.

    They learned it from whoever invented the impossible to find unsubscribe command.

    I had one of these yesterday on a piece of junk mail. It was covered by a dark part of the advertisement and very faint. I finally found it and zapped them. Felt good.
