Does Seuss state own ebay?Do they have a constitutional mandate to stop selling of private copies to be sold between 2 private individuals? Are you going to order Fanta, Volkswagen,Bayern,BASF, Ford and Hugo Boss products to be delisted because they were literally associated with the Nazis?

Banning of the books is consistent with eBay's TOS. This is basically "eBay is enforcing it's TOS WRT Dr Seuss books" kind of story.
