Yahoo, I understand you were going to cancel porn items. Okay. Well you took my $0.20 per ad to run Playboy magazines. And a few other adult magazines you could by on the newsstand. What I dont understand is that I had bidders on my items and today you deleted all items without telling me! So what do I do now? I even checked and I did not receive any credit for you pulling the ads. And to top this off, On Wednesday, one of your reps emailed me and told me to go ahead and list the mags I had asked info about. You replied to go ahead and list it!! And I had a bidder today on it! Now nothing. Are we going to get a refund back and perhaps you can reach us and let the bidder and buyers know who won what items of them.

That is Yahoo for you. When they went on a tangent early in the year and basically cancelled all knife auctions, I had a multitude of paid auctions cancelled, no refund! Yahoo isn't eBay - eBay does a refund if they feel lead to cancel your auctions; I guess you get what you pay for.

If you read Yahoo's guidelines which are a Must before you listed your crap in Yahoo you would have enough decency to keep your Crapola out of yahoo.
You got what you deserve, now, go away, dont be mad, just go away so we can conduct biz.
So sad that people like you exist and have the nerve to complain. What a joke.
And may I ad, spamming people with your crapola is a felony.
To make money off of sex is disgusting, their is a mental health clinic in the US everywhere you go. Turn yourself in.

Hmmmmmmm, guess they must have changed their mind on a moments notice again. After all, the announcement they posted about it said
"Yahoo! Auctions is discontinuing the Adult & Erotica categories. Items submitted before 12:00PM EST on 4/13/2001 will remain on the site until the auctions close. No new submissions will be posted after that time."

Bluroks
There were only 2 categories Playboys were allowable
Auctions> Other> Adult & Erotica> Media> Playboy
Auctions> Other> Adult & Erotica> Media> Books & Magazines
The first category still has 124 ads and the second 1,205 so I'm guessing you put yours somewhere else which is why they would have been deleted.
If you listed your Playboys outside adult that is a TOS violation. Playboy may not technically be "porn" to some but it is age restricted and was required to be listed in Adult. No, they will not refund you and no, they will not give you the bidders info to complete the sales. They have their TOS worded in a way that states you agree you will forfeit your fees if your ads violate TOS.

Sort of funny that Yahoo cancelled these auctions but recently announced they are selling porn themselves.
Maybe they are eliminating competion.

Hi there,
I think a reminder is in order that it is against the Community Guidelines to discuss suspended members or moderations in the threads.
The reason discussion of suspended members is prohibited is due to the fact they are unable to respond.
Thank you,

Another sign of poor Yahoo management. Forget about selling on Yahoo and just short their stock. Lot's more money to be made that way.
Porn is harmless. Porn is fun. I hope to god someone is making some nice profits at it.
