The Pedophile's Guide to Love and Pleasure @amazon

305 66 November 10, 2010 at 03:12 PM
Man, I've seen a lot of things on the web and there have been few times that it's so shocking, it haunts me. This is one of those WTF....For some reason, Amazon selling : "The Pedophile's Guide to Love and Pleasure" just leaves me speechless. I buy everything from Amazon except for food....I don't know if I'll be shopping at Amazon anytime soon...just my opinion.

Great...now that I've viewed this product, what other products will they suggest for me? Sick

I've heard there is an instructional pull-out pamphlet on hair removal from the genital area.

Probably [this link which schooby edited out, lol], as also mentioned in OP's link. vomit

Secret Private Browsing is your friend, if you don't want Amazon to mark this as previously viewed on your account.

What makes me sad is that all this publicity is promoting the author's trash too. There are more sickos out there buying this now...

OK, I have removed the links to the books because I really don't think we need those sale links coming from our site. You can discuss...but please no more links to those books. Thanks. vomit

*****:Hello David, my name is ******. I'll be happy to help you today.

Me:Hi *********
I saw from another site that you are selling this book "The Pedophile's Guide to Love and Pleasure". I find it completely inappropriate and I am requesting that it be removed.
I have been a prime subscriber for 3 years now. And I am considering boycotting the site if you choose to sell this kind of offensive material.

*********:I'm very sorry about this. We value all feedback from our customers, and I thank you again for taking the time to send us your comments about this issue. Let me assure you that Amazon.com does not support or promote hatred or criminal acts.
If you'd like, you can leave feedback at the bottom of the page of the book in question and that will be transferred to the correct department.

Me:By selling this you are encouraging Pedophile's. I hope that you do the right thing and remove it.As this will will cost you alot of customers.

*******:Yes, I'm very sorry about that. Can I help you with anything else?

Me:Can you remove the content? I see several of your loyal customers have posted on it. That it should not be sold on Amazon. Yet it remains. The longer it is there the more people will get upset. It was even posted in the news.

*******:I personally cannot, and I cannot comment further on whether it is possible. Can I help you with anything else?

Here I get a e-mail telling me that they don't censor content. And asking me if they solved my problem.

Me:Can you forward me directly to someone who can help me? I would appreciate it.

*********:Unfortunately there is no one to transfer you to about this, but you can definitely leave feedback at the bottom of the page of the book.

Me:Members are leaving feedback and it is going unanswered. People who have been molested are being forced to post as this is such a disappointment by amazon. And they like myself think that this should not be on the site.

She has nothing directly to do with the book being there. So I didn't want to cause any trouble for her specifically by posting this. And I did miss one, fixed.
