Just reported it aswell. Surely the 3 shouldn't be kept in there together anyway... Before I carry on I better stop or another Cohabitation debate will break out. We haven't had one this week :)

Cohabiting aside, it's against eBays policy to sell pets on eBay anyway, the only acceptance for any animals for any kind are ones classed as "Live foods" as far as i'm aware.

This is true yes, but I don't even think that should be allowed to be sold.
Otherwise a snake could be classed as sat cat food or something.
Totally wrong to sell anything alive that way in my opinion.

When on the Forums, always be nice, stick to the rules and help when you can.

I saw a similar one not so long ago where they were advertising a viv and then in small print at the bottom says it includes a bearded dragon. It's wrong when there are so many other avenues for selling unwanted pets. Ebay has gone down in my opinions over the last couple years anyway. Makes you wonder who is monitoring the ads

I've seen lots of vivs for sale with a wording along the lines of 'ebay wont let me sell the occupant but ask for details'. Doesn't take a genius to work out that the 'occupant' is for sale too. It's just the way people get round ebay rules.

Your actually allowed to sell fish on there, like proper sell them, not just label them as 'live food' or whatever. My godfather picked up 10 bristlenose plecs for a tenner last time he dared to look xD

I rely on live food from Ebay, maybe the rules be tightened up a little. I keep axolotl hatchlings and NEED baby brine shrimp to feed them and they have to be live, as well as other live small critter pond life. I agree on creatures you could possibly use to keep but a total ban of live feed there is genuine people out there. Baby brine shrimp, bloodworm and daphnea are for example (the things I buy) NOT something you would ever buy to keep as pets :)
