BU stands for, well, you know...
Not surprised that there are no returns.
It's be interesting to see how they determined the country of manufacture.

It's like they didn't even try. That beak looks like a beer bottle opener.

Thanks, eBay Which is exactly why I don't even bother reporting anymore. Last time I reported one was with 3 violations and their bots didn't recognize any of them. I'm getting too old to waste my time on fruitless endeavors.

I think at some point, you have to accept that it's the Wild West, caveat emptor. ebay has a financial interest in allowing all listings to continue, and a minimal interest in paying employees or AI engines to police listings. In an environment where hucksters have free rein to part fools from their money, it's probably more efficient to focus on educating fools over attempting to block hucksters. The hucksters are already breaking multiple criminal laws, if anyone in law enforcement could muster even a thin sliver of enthusiasm towards stopping them. |
