What the? This the most bizarre and disturbing thing for sale I have seen for sale in a while this seller has several of this is for sale under horse equipment and so on , people really are just as stupid, as several have have bought many of these intangible and disallowed at ebay items! Wrong in so many ways! esp
First, please send a picture of your pet via my email :

Payment is £20 per reading and report, using pay pal (please use "gifting") . HUH even evading capture by paypal for a buyers reversal!

    She's got quite a lot of seemingly happy customers, judging by her feedback.

    It breaks so many eBay rules, it is difficult to know where to start .

    If it gives pet owners who have lost a dear animal companion some comfort then I wouldn't call it disturbing.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    Couldn't agree more. She doesn't appear to be doing anybody any harm. And it looks as though she's been doing it for a while.

    What is the harm in it? £20 is not a lot of money its not like she is asking people for hundreds. For someone who is going to get a great deal of comfort from this, putting their mind and worries at ease it is £20 well spent.

    Ebay does not allow "psychic emailed readings" for humans, cats, dogs, horses, fleas or anything living or dead.........my dog can communicate to me, without Doris Stokes there, just sits with its legs crossed and goes goes to the door when I pick up the dog lead and my wellies ,let's me know loud and clear I need to do my business.... it is just a load of hocus pocus .

    They also want the PayPal payment sent as a gift payment, so they can be reported for that as well.

    LOL yes my personal opinion is I agree with you, it is a load of !!!!! But some people do believe in it and whats the harm in that if its going to provide them with some comfort at a difficult time.
