eBay's Modifies 'Offensive Items' Policy:

eBay's Modifies 'Offensive Items' Policy: "eBay updated its Offensive Items policy to prohibit sellers from listing racially or ethnically offensive items on the site. eBay will allow historic collectibles like Black Americana to be listed, but not reproductions of those items.
In addition, sellers are prohibited from using insensitive language to describe the items. eBay's policy explains, 'For example, sellers may not use offensive words and phrases such as 'Jap' or 'Nigger' in the title or description of their listing, even if that word is part of the proper name or trademark of the item. Sellers may, however, display an image of such historical items within their listing even if the offensive word is plainly visible within the historical item.'"
