This is why I don't use E-Bay

[moosmom]

I sent this piece of $hit an e-mail. I want SO bad to tell him to just ship the cat to me. But I don't want to contribute to his stupidity. I'm in fear for Austin's life.

Here's what I said:

You need to get this poor cat to a vet now!! What you are doing is not only stupid, but it's illegal. You are not allowed to sell animals on E-Bay. Read the fine print and get some help will ya? I can recommend a shrink in the Palm Beach area.

GRRRRR......
how encrediby angrifying......GRRRRR......
Why the heck would they call it a "Clico plush with real bodily functions??"

its soo... wrong to do this to a living, breathing creature
Well it sounds like those who live neer and have an e bay account have taken action, thank you very much.
but still... wow

I just sent "him" and e-mail as well, asking if he is indeed serious about this. Suggesting he take this kitty to a local RESCUE, or if not .... had he confirmed the shipping details and amount. The $4.50 price quote sounds low to me. If he writes me back and can confirm the shipping details for a LIVE animal I will bid on this precious baby girl!!!

SO SAD and SICK!!!!!

Kim,

If he writes me back and can confirm the shipping details for a LIVE animal I will bid on this precious baby girl!!!

I also wanted to bid on her. But I refuse to contribute to this guy's stupdity. Not only that, but it IS illegal to sell live animals on e-bay.

I did report him to e-bay. It has been reported by others as well. I just hope that this will NOT endanger Austin's life. Because if e-bay DOES delete the bid, what will happen to her???

I'm saying a prayer for her. From his description, it sounds like we're not exactly dealing with the brightest crayon in the box!

You guys are so wonderful. How I found her was that she was posted on another forum - someone was searching for plush cats and this popped up. Yes he is serious about the $4.50 shipping fee as that is whatit will cost for a *plush* cat.

My hands are tied in Au or I would be doing more than just reporting it.

This is against eBay's user policy, I hope he gets in trouble for running the ad, banned from eBay forever, and the cat gets confiscated by the Humane Society.

[jazzcat]

The auction is still up so I reported it too just in hopes if enough of us do they will act quickly.

This is terrible! I'm going to pray this poor little cat comes out of this safely.

Thanks All Creatures Great And Small for informing the Sheriff department, and thanks to those who would take poor Austin!

I really hope that idiot won't do anything to her!!

GRRRR I want to report this ****head. I guess I used to have an E-Bay ID but I've forgotten it and if you aren't registered you can't report - I even tried sending the info to the "abuse" e-mail which most websites have, but it, too, takes me to the register pages. I hope enough people report this idiot. I also hope poor Austin gets the medical attention and loving home s/he deserves. People like this should NOT be allowed to breed! GRRRRRRRRRr

[rg_girlca]

What a complete MORON. Poor sweet kitty. Why the H*** does this idiot have an animal for in the first place if he can't take care of it properly. Instead of doing something so idiotic as putting it on E-Bay, bring the poor thing to a vet and get it medical help.

I hope and pray All Creatures Great and Small, that the animal cruelty division is able to do something for this precious baby.
Thank you for taking this a step further.

Please God, look out for dear sweet Austin that she is out of the hands of this B****** and into a forever loving home that will take care of her properly.

That just broke my heart reading that add! I would like to stomp that sorry------!

[RedHedd]

Well, E-Bay sure doesn't make it easy to report something like this, but a cat's life is more important to me than having to click through numerous pages and register my information. But I did it anyway. I hope others do too, although when I finally submitted the report I received a message that this "item" has already been reported. Let's keep up the good work!

[trayi52]

Where do you go to report this? I buy a lot of items off ebay. I just don't know where to report this.

I finally got the link to show up! He describes the poot kitty like it was some sort of monster. Whoever it is can't get a date because of this more kitty! I really don't think they need a date!

Let me know the link to go to and report this, and I will also pose a complaint!

As per Willie, how do we lodge a complaint with ebay? I'm logged in but can't find a way The auction is still open

[wolf_Q]

What the $*#^ is wrong with Ebay? I sent my complaint in last night, I can't believe they haven't done anything!!

Here's how I did it, there may be other ways...

Go to this link http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/wildlife.html and at the bottom it says "Report listing violations or problems with another eBay member." Click on that, enter your user name/password. Then put in the item number which is 3175140080
