Is the aluminum extension ladder in the photos included as well?

I think you left out some information about the former owners.

I'll bid $100 for the lot, but you have to throw in the ladder, and ship everything to the DC area!

As it happens, I work at eBay. And one of their policies is:

"eBay may also, in its discretion and out of respect for the families of murder victims, remove listings of items closely associated with individuals notorious for committing murderous acts within the last 100 years...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."

http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/offensive.html [under "Some Examples"]

For example: a listing of the farm where Ed Gein committed his atrocities was recently taken down for being "murderabilia" - as the Trust & Safety department calls it. [Love that word.  :) ]

Of course, Titus/Ryan are presumed innocent until proven guilty - and this item is not directly related to the crime they are charged with. So this may get a pass.

But it may not. So if you go to that link and the auction isn't there any more, you'll know why.

I recently used ebay to purchase a few sets of sesame street baby wall decals.   According to Ebay policy, am I now classified as a complete pussy?

Those filthy Asian fuckers sent me a busted-ass Dell and then got mad when I called them on it.  The machine was DOA.

Only later did I learn that *all* Dell PCs are pieces of shit, not just the one I had.

Not as a matter of policy. But if you came into Live Chat and asked what happened to a listing of Sesame Street baby decals you were bidding on, and your account record showed that you were a 25 year old man, I couldn't promise that the customer support representative wouldn't share a snicker over you with the person who sits next to them.

Uh, I hate to break this to you. But that "reserve not met" on the auction page means that your being high bidder means precisely dick.  :)

Does that mean they'll be working out on prison equipment & other inmates for the forseeable future?  ::)

You're not fooling anyone.  This is what spiced your interest...

What did they do?

Hostile takeover and they've already started commercializing what was once the greatest internet billboard in the world.  

And as soon as they stuck their grubby little fingers into the mix, then large, print media outlets began targeting Craigslist for litigation, citing that CL was not held to the same standards as they with respect to things like housing ads.  

It's going to get a lot dirtier before the situation improves.

You probably won't approve of this move either...  :)

No surprise on Google but competition's badly needed; hopefully it'll become popular despite any problems with Ebay.
