Outrageous ad on Ebay - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

hunniebunnie · 04-09-2006, 10:45 PM

you can't sell "anything" on ebay...like you can't sell animals, human fluids, organs, children, but there's quite a few doozies... like "friendship" for 10k or buy it now for 25k; potato chip with an image of jesus; advertisement on a man's forehead in the form of a tattoo for a year; yeah... weird stuff.

Hi Ladies,
Thank you so much for all your wonderful kind words. Just so you know I have been breeding Chow Chows for 5 years and am very successful at it. We use only the top bloodlines and use only Artificial insemination for all of our breedings. Now that we we are also breeding Yorkies, we offer stud service and do both local and ship out chilled semen to those who can not find a stud in their area. So as you can see there is nothing weird or obscure at all about my add, and that is why my add on ebay has been reinstated. We have many successful breedings this way and have helped a lot of breeders with their breeding programs. Everything we do is very professional and we have a contract that guarantees many things as well a a 2nd free stud service if their bitch doesn't take. I accept your apologies in advance.
Linda

True. My family raised quarter horses for many years and this is done all the time. Same with dogs..many breeders use ai and have their semen shipped; some pay to have it stored for future use. My vet does this.

You know, it's like supply and demand.. Whatever people are willing to pay for will be sold. She's not selling drugs or anything illegal so it's not really anyone elses call..

Thanks ladies! finally some positive support around here!

I don't think it has anything to do with positive or negative support. And you're accepting apologies...I have to give that to you, that was pretty funny.

Anyway, people on YT have their own opinions and are entitled to them. Selling used dirty panties was allowed on eBay before (now it's not). Is that okay? Some people thought it was, some not; just as people have an opinion about getting Yorkie semen off eBay. People feel the need to sell things, and that's their prerogative. But, what we were saying is, a reputable breeder would probably want to see the stud and not just buy semen off a site. If you feel this is an appropriate practice, once again, that's your opinion, but we don't have to agree with selling or buying semen off eBay. If it's okay for a dog, why not a human? Once again, my honest opinion. I respect yours, and I hope you would respect mine. I do not want to get into a heated debate over this. I personally would not buy semen (of any kind), used underwear, kidneys, a husband, or Brad Pitt's chewed gum off eBay...but that's just me.

Yes, this is right. Don't get me wrong. I would NEVER buy this off of Ebay, but there are people that would.

I am sorry but you all act very uneducated. There is no difference in putting an add in a newspaper for a puppy for sale or a stud service, then putting an add up on ebay...get with the times ladies!!!! its not like I'm auctioning a dog that is obviously wrong. For your information I am a very reputable breeder, all my puppies have waiting lists 8 months long, and I have spent tons of money on some of the world's best bloodlines.

You didn't answer my question...if it's okay for dog semen, why not human? And if it's okay for dog semen, why not an actually puppy?

Bodily fluid of ANY kind should NOT be allowed on eBay. It's just plain unsanitary. Point, blank, simple.

Tried to edit and add this, but too late:

If someone believes that this is an acceptable eBay practice, and they REALLY want your stud Yorkie semen (who I'm not doubting is beautiful), then nothing we say on YT will discourage them. But you saying nasty things personally to other members may hinder their decision.

Saleswman · 04-27-2006, 06:34 PM

Well, guess my shock at this add really hit a nerve.....not sure why really????

My original post was exactly what I said......quite a shock....now does that make me uneducated????? I think not....in fact.....I too have a very nice degree, with many years in the medical industry......and yes....believe it or not......I too sell on Ebay......but.....not sperm.....nor eggs, although hubby may be willing to find some so I can have a little girl...lol ....nothing alive....and knowing what I do....medically......this is not something that I would choose to do.....dogs, or no dogs

My opinion....I am intitled to it and so are the rest of you......remember, this forum is for opinions......like other things....we all have one!

My 2 cents....
