Found by somebody else, so not sure if this is genuine or a photoshop...

ha! If that is true that's definitely one that slipped through the cracks! Surely they can't be stupid enough to let that one display!

gotta be fake. I doubt eBay would put that on their homepage! Imagine what it would do to their reputation.

This must be a fake. One cannot expect such kind of stupidity from a reliable and good auction website like ebay. This can be photo shop work or one must have made joke for amusement.

I admit... This one has been edited.. Such a reputed site can not make such blunder!

Yes, it must be! eBay has very strict rules about posting adult category items and the limitations are endless - for something like this to end up on the homepage is just impossible.

But you have to admit it is a bit funny :D

Well this is not the fun that should be created on platforms like ebay which every one uses... You can have that at some other place... :)

Hi all, just to chuck in my 2 pennies worth....

FAKE! eBay have some very sophisticated search tools that would catch the offending word and bloke it from being displayed.

When i first started on eBay i had a listing that had a word sounding like hits but starting with T, within the salespage. eBay allowed the listing but blocked it from displaying. When i couldn't find it i got in touch with eBay and was told to remove the offending word and the listing would be displayed.
