"We all know that if you’re looking to buy cheesy motivational picture of people sailing, or climbing up a sheer cliff face, the back pages of SkyMall magazine are a pretty safe bet. But where do you go if you’re in the market for an inspirational picture of a famous Nazi death camp?
As it turns out, you go to Walmart: The big-box superstore explains that a framed reminder that work makes one free (until Nazis gas/shoot/starve/beat/work you to death) makes “…a great addition to your home or office.“  A tip o' the hat to Heeb Magazine: http://heebmagazine.com/charming-poster-......rt/51078

Yep, the very same one.
Seems to me if you can't monitor what 3rd parties are doing on your website, you shouldn't be collecting money for their products. BTW, just wondering if the Amazon and Sears offerings also touted it as "makes a great addition for your home or office." My guess is probably yes.

For once I'm speechless. Glad someone complained and they did something about it.

OMFG.
