Have not bought anything for quite a while from e-bay. Last year I put a German knife from 1920's on Kijiji. They pulled it and when I enquired they said someone complained. I said it was not Nazi related so why would it be offensive. It was a knife they replied. There are lots of knives on there I replied. They said they would shut me down if I tried to relist it. On the live auction front was at an auction where I was the last bidder. Thinking I had won then the auctioneer himself outbid me. The second time he did this I just said Goodbye loudly.
