<blockquote>Found this after (UNINTENTIONALLY) running across more of these nasty ass auctions: <blockquote> April 16, 2006 I'm too sexy for my shoes Off the Wall Originally uploaded by Citizen Rob. Well, almost two weeks after the fact (and a week after all my shoes were sold and shipped off), I got a response from eBay about my naughty shoe listing. I thought it was funny at the time because it seemed pretty obvious that in explaining why they delisted a couple of shoes from my auction, they accidentally sent the "Materials adult in nature or otherwise not appropriate for minors (individuals under 18 years of age) may only be listed in eBay's Mature Audiences area" response instead of "Your shoes are too nasty to sell to other humans". Turns out that no, they got it right. Hello, Thank you for writing to eBay with your concerns. I am happy to help. I understand your frustration at having your items ended, however, I carefully reviewed your account, the auctions in question and current eBay policy regarding Used Clothing/Mature Audiences and determined that the correct action was taken. Since there are sellers who list shoes as fetish items, eBay has adopted strict guidelines for the listing of used shoes. The following are some examples of what is considered inappropriate in listings on the general site: * Marketing the person who wore the clothing, rather than the clothing item itself. ("TYLER'S used/worn shoes", "MY used socks", "JOCK WORN/USED", "FRAT BOY WORN/USED", "I have worn this shirt daily as I work out", etc.). * Any reference to odor or stains. * No reference to "fetish", "special request" or other sexual innuendo is allowed. * Indicating the item has not been or will not be properly cleaned (any reference to odor, shipping in a zip lock bag, etc.). * Images showing the sellers face, whole body or that are sexually suggestive or otherwise inappropriate. In listings for used shoes or socks, the image cannot show above the knee, and the foot must be totally inside of the item being sold (no bare foot in a sock auction; no foot outside shoe even partially, in a shoe auction, etc.). Any extraneous information such as "Then, about a year ago, my feet started hurting. For some reason, I suddenly couldn't wear my Chuck Taylors or my Vans, forced instead to retreat into the comfort of my big leather Airwalks instead. A few weeks ago, I found out that I have diabetes and will never again be able to wear my hip and happenin' shoes from before. Sad story, I know. Every time I walk into my closet, my old shoes are there, mocking me. It's time to get rid of them and move on with my new life, one with trips to the salad bar and fake foods and no alcohol (no, really), and most of all, with ugly new shoes for my big sad diabetic feet. But don't weep for me, gentle buyer friend with unusually large feet, because my fun happy shoes are going to walk again, perhaps on YOUR big dogs." It has been my pleasure to assist you. Thank you for choosing eBay and have a great day. Regards, Ralston Community Watch Team eBay Trust & Safety So really, according to the rules, NONE of my shoes should have been fair game. I managed to slip most of my fetish items past The Man and into the hands of sleazy shoe-fuckers. I made a little money, too. Add pornographer to my list of accomplishments. Incidentally, if you did buy a pair of my shoes and are currently in a relationship with them, you really are encouraged to keep that information to yourself. I'm just here to bring you together. After that, it's all you. by the Rob at 7:13 PM</blockquote> Some dude said he heard about a guy who made $4000(!?) selling nasty ass shoes and socks to perverted ass fools! And to think all this time I thought Sween was talking about the STOCK market... </blockquote> Mine don't get dirty enough to satisfy the likes of you. What the hell you looking for anyway, you're hunting down used shoes now? (I just remembered I bought a used pair at a garage sale three weeks ago, damn)
