off topic and i appologise but please help- shock collars for dogs

[whaleomeloette]

Please feel free to move this to where it would be relevent (off topic etc- im newish here and dont know where to post this)

i am utterly mortified that ebay allow the TORTURE items, shock collars to be sold
yet they throw a fit about other items such as guns,knives,fake shoes, weed grinders etc

could any one who cares about animals please find a shock collar listing on ebay and REPORT the item to make them aware people do not approve of them

you get options yto choose from- i chose hazardous item because it is. it can burn dogs- most have no shock settings to adjust for size of the dog.
imagine being a yorkie and being shocked with the power intended for a st bearnard

its utterly vile. even worse they use photos of puppies to advertise the listing. its revolting



thank you in advance

calling them up now- thgey areny english and dont understand wales is part of uk. where shock collars are banned

so if someoen in wales bought one they are breaking the law and therefore ebay has served as a platform for distributing illegal goods.

im not holding out much hope- she said she is refairing it to some other department
but they wont be savvy with english law so....

if i can get shock collars removed from ebay all together i think ill have a party for my self

[whaleomeloette]

But, as far as I know, they aren't banned in the rest of the UK. You're going to be quite busy reporting all these sellers to the police . . .
