Hi

Not it is against Ebay rules to sell live animals - can you let us have the listing number and we will happily report it to Ebay and get it removed.

I've checked on ebay and the first number has gone but the second one (190369417860) is still there, would someone else mind reporting this as well, the more complaints they get the better chance of getting it removed. 

 

There is a blue 'report this item' tag on the right hand side just click this and there is a tick drop down box to complete.

 

Thanks Viv

I just received a autoamted reply to my complaint regarding the sale of this tortoise on eBay, They are looking into this...The can remove the individual from ebay! But this isnt satisfactory in my eyes, the listing includes a tortoise and they allowed this sale to continue! I am furious!!! I may consider TS, This is a discrace
