It's illegal for imgur to host illegal images I can see why eBay would be responsible for people selling illegal items.

Imgur hosts the images vs eBay only hosts the information, the sellers ship the product to the buyer

Imgur has to take down the illegal image when requested to do so. Imgur isn't charged for having a user upload an illegal image.

This is the part that bothers me too. Assuming they haven't been asked to remove them already that is.
