SS-guard figurines and Nazi tanks go as eBay removes Nazi-themed toys from its site
More than a dozen Nazi-themed toys, such as SS-guard figurines and Nazi tanks, have been removed from listings by online auction giant eBay.
The toys were removed for violating eBay’s policy banning products that promote hate. Items the auction website prohibits include those promoting antisemitic stereotypes as well as “historical Holocaust-related” or Nazi-related products. These may include reproductions or items that bear a swastika or which represent Nazi propaganda.
Coins from the Nazi era are exempt from the ban.
Other online retail giants, including Amazon and Etsy, have also removed products promoting Nazi ideology following protests.
