Can't you report them? If it is suspected as selling or 'gifting' livestock, it's very much against the policies.

The 'gifts' are a male normal and a female amel.

This is against eBay policy...

Just clicked on the link on it and seen the snakes in question. They shouldn't be selling snakes on ebay. Especially as 'gifts' with a viv. It's wrong.

shall I report it? Its a bit out of order. If for any reason I should ever have to part with any of my pets (not likely but situations do arise) then ebay would be the LAST place I would think to sell them!!x

It's so not cool. It's your call. Mind if you report I dread to think what the seller might do as an alternative to the corns.

There is a Report Item button on the lower right side..

I don't have a UK account but that would be the way...

AND if anyone wants to walk on the dark side there is a post over there that ties in to this and looks like an Ideal spot for a flame war..


ETA.. what about notifying the rspca, promise to buy long enough to get some details then... BAM
