This really makes me sad frown someone is selling their glider on Yahoo auctions! First off I thought you can't sell live animals on there? It just makes me think of this poor glider being sold off like a piece of meat or something...I'm sorry if I offended anyone I just don't think that's fair to the glider how do you know that whoever wins the auction is going to be a good owner! frown frown frown frown Here's the link so you guys and ladies can see it for yourself; if it doesn't work just go to Yahoo auctions and serach for sugar glider.

Yeah, that little description was very disgusting! "If you've seen one you've seen them all" BS! All of my gliders look very different! That poor glider sounds like it has a bad diet too. Hand raised? Ugh.. health probs.
Yep- I can safely sum this up as another case of "disposable glider".

Rebekka
All my raspberry "Little People" wanted me to extend our Thanks to you - for looking out for
their raspberry friends!
I have also complained to Yahoo & did happen to mention that other Sugar Glider lovers will do the same.
You do not have to be a member of Yahoo to complain!
Complain here -

Maybe if enough of us complain to Yahoo they will watch a little more carefully in the future!

This is deffinitly aginst the rules.

The rules are listed here:
<a href=http://auctions.yahoo.com/html/guidelines.html>http://auctions.yahoo.com/html/guidelines.html</a>

If they are notified that their is someone breaking the rules then they are supposed to take down the auction right then and there.

my biggest concern is that if this person was going to sell it on Yahoo, what is next? Obviously this person isn't going to check out whoever she sells this poor glider to. This really breaks my heart that people don't research before they buy an animal and then don't properly take care of them. There's nothing we can really do though and that is the really sad thing. That is all I wanted to say.

The seller is posting about this on glider central...if you are concerned with the glider you can read this post. It makes me mad that they are upset with us for getting the auction canceled!
