I can't believe it.....
permalink
I was just looking on E-bay for guinea pig stuff, it's just something I do regularly. Most of it's junk that they don't need but I've found a few cute things. There is someone on E-bay that listed their guinea pig for sale! That is not the worst--it lists a shipping charge! I sure hope this person doesn't plan on shipping their guinea pig like a package. I sent them an e-mail urging them to list the pig on the Guinea pig home website and not to ship it because it wasn't safe.
She is trying to ship it UPS next day air, at least that's what the auction says. UGH!!!

Can you believe it?

That is against ebay's terms of service, and you can report it.

At the very bottom of the listing there should be a "report this item" link. Ebay usually removes these things pretty quickly after you report it.

Post the link to the ad so that Ebay members here on the boasrd can report it and get it removed.

I reported it to Ebay. Hopefully they will take care of it. I can't believe anyone would consider shipping a live animal.
I checked Ebay again and it's not listed anymore. I hope the fool that posted it will go ahead and try to adopt it properly now. I gave her the address for the Guinea pig home website.
