As long as the CPA doesn't go AWOL, they don't care what they're bidding on. As for trademarks - Google run their own trademark database, so the more senior your AdWords Rep is - the quicker things get actioned.

I used to try and come up with wacky searches for eBay ads just like this. I used to do things like search for "zombies" "brains" "killer tomatoes" and the like just to get silly eBay ads. Brilliant!

I just find it so amusing that anyone would thing eBay PPC ads disappearing from Google would be a bad thing. As this example shows they just bid for anything under the sun. I have actually done a search for names a few times and seen eBay ads saying "Looking to buy PERSONS NAME", hilarious, is eBay pimping people lol.. Ok I better not say too much in case some eBay SEO/PPC person comes after me with a stick! I actually met one of eBays former PPC managers a little while ago and he said what they actually do is input entire dictionaries into their PPC campaigns. Now there must be some kind of software to do this...But my question is WHY on earth would they do this? What are their conversion rates like? ha ha, I wrote a blogpost about eBay boycott of Google PPC a little while a go.
