Wot u can report on eBay - if you can be bothered to report anything?

quip

Just spent a frustrating time trying to report something on eBay and took ages to find the correct item in the pull down lists, the system does seem designed to make you give up and not bother. So extracted the data in case I wanted it in the future. Just in case its of use to anyone then here it its. (as of 26th August 2010)
