Baby for sale on ebay  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 82/100. tuckersheri (802) 3 years ago

German police arrest a couple that was tring to sell there 8 month year old boy on eBay. The eBay ad read, male 8 month year old baby boy, sleeps well throughout the night and doesn't cry much. Good for infertile couple or single man or woman wanting child. Starting bid was 1 euro. The couple recieved no bids but got several emails. eBay removed this ad 2 hours after being on and notified police. When police arrived the couple said it was a joke which police did not buy the story. The couple was charged with attemped child trafficing and the child was taken into custody of the states hands for protection reasons. This is quite sad to think someone would sell there child for money. People are humans not merchandise.

I'm glad they got caught. That is horrible whether it was meant to be a joke or not. I do not know what is wrong with people these days. I guarantee they were trying to sell it.

That was a terrible joke and it must have shocked many ebay members. Everyone likes a bargain but nobody would like to see a baby for sale on ebay. If a member bids and gets over a reserve set he or she wins and gets the item. It is illegal to sell children though. I am glad that ebaby notified the police. I feel sorry for the baby boy. Adoption involves much paperwork.

well i have to say that this doesnt suprise me. ebay lets almost anything be sold on their website it seems. i guess the parents were quite desperate for money maybe? i know it doesnt excuse their actions though.

If it was intended to be a joke it was in poor taste. I could almost go for their story of it being a joke except for the mention of the baby being good for infertile couples or those wanting a child. There is nothing funny about that, and the fact that they used such sensitive statements makes methnk they were serious. How did they think they would get away with something like that without it being reported? That was a very silly mistake to make and I ma sure they will think alot more before attemtping something like that again.

To put it out there so blatantly is horrible, even if it was a joke, this is dealing with a human being. That is sad. Just brings me to think about how many people around the world still today are still bought and sold for Money. To actually put it out there online like that on a well known site like Ebay sure shows the guts some people have. If they didn't want the child they could of let someone adopt him, so many out there that want children and haven't been able to.
