I am sure that most of you have heard the news about eBay removing the auctions that were for Kevin Mitnick. Well, what I don't understand is how can they refuse to allow Kevin Mitnick's personal items and state that these items do not meet their community standards, but at the same time allow Natzi memorabilia to be sold by the truckloads?

I have deleted you post because it contained a link to the auction under discussion. There are specific steps that must be followed before you may post identifying information (including auction numbers, IDs etc).
Please refer the the CGs, linked below, for more information.

"Further, eBay will remove any listing and suspend the users involved where it appears that a person convicted of a violent felony is attempting to use eBay (directly or through another person) to benefit financially from his or her criminal notoriety.
eBay will review listings that are brought to its attention by the community, and will look at the entire listing to determine whether it falls within this rule."
