They are not so much bothered it would seem, according to past experience, by dodgy-looking archaeological collectables, but they are not so blasé about other artefacts: 'EBay removes Holocaust memorabilia listings', BBC 3 November 2013.
EBay has apologised and removed from sale about 30 items of memorabilia from the Nazi Holocaust, following an investigation by a UK newspaper.
The Mail on Sunday said it had found "dozens" of items related to the Holocaust on the site last week [...] It said it had alerted eBay and the online auctioneer had removed 30 items from sale. The newspaper said eBay had been unable to say how long such items may have been for sale on its website. EBay said: "We are very sorry these items have been listed on eBay and we are removing them. "We don't allow listings of this nature, and dedicate
thousands of staff to policing our site and use the latest technology to
detect items that shouldn't be for sale. "We very much regret that we didn't live up to our own standards. We have made a donation to charity to reflect our concern."
How nuch has EBay donated to charities (and which ones) "to reflect their concern" as the result of constant case of sales of antiquities which they do not use "thousands of staff policing our site and the latest technology to detect items that shouldn't be for sale"?
