    Interestingly the seller is playing the 'I'm not a business as I am disabled and merely make things to sell for a profit'

    So another excuse to add to the list- you can't be a business if you are disabled, I'll add that to the 'I can;t be a business as I am a SAHM' and ' I can't be a business as my items are handmade' both of which I've heard trotted out recently

    I'll be pleased to see the back of these items though- I almost got banned on one facebook group for daring to suggest that plastic beads on a knotted cord attached to a dummy was a really bad idea.

    If only. I've been diagnosed with mild autistic spectrum disorder and I could certainly play that card if I really wanted to. (I have in the past - but mostly to get support from uni given I have trouble with public presentations and speaking...not because I want to break the law.)

    It also transpires though that there might be an issue with VERO, given the items are for reborn dolls and a company called 'Reborn' has had listings pulled in the past.

    Odd and odder, I think.

    In fairness though, those are for babies, weren't the ones in the OP intended for dolls? ie. Dummies without the teats?
