what do you guys think of these ebay kits do they come with a spiderling??

[paul towler]

yes if you read his feedback, you will see he is sending them out whith small live slings ???

[Layla McInnes]

which is against ebay rules.

Blimey I must be doing something wrong with my Brachys ! See this Q and A regarding the B albopilosum slings he 'giving' with his kit.

Q: Hi, whats size spiderling would the kit house?

A: From around 1cm to about 8cm would be fine - but they grow very big and very fast, within a year they could have an 8inch leg span. Most of my spiderlings are around 1cm.

Just found 8 others also for sale. Kits with slings. Hopefully they should be removed soon.

I have asked him this question! perhaps he knows something we don't
I think he or she have made a bit of a typo, mind you it says they have been keeping tarantulas for 34 years or more. Interesting

[Simon Batten]

yeh it is technically against the rules of ebay but he is being a bit careful with it by not directly saying it, I recon he can get round it by saying somthing to do with live food because thats not against the rules

[Layla McInnes]

he says in his q and a that he wont say ts used as live food. I think its blatant enough to get removed but thats my opinion.

[Layla McInnes]

They seem to have been removed

There will have been ways to get around but theres no need to sell slings on the sly with ebay given we have the BTS bulletin board whats more I received an email from www.invertabid.co.uk I think thats the site or near enough that is like ebay and can bid on TS or buy them straight off, reptiles too but it was very interesting.

[Layla McInnes]

I must have reported 20 odd diff 'items' now

[Chris Sainsbury]

So apart from being against Ebay rules is there any real problem with selling inverts on Ebay?
Why are people who sell inverts online so set dead againts this?

[Mark Lynes]

Have to confess I was wondering the same myself.
