The wording of the ad (as reported by the AP) is:<br><br>"Offering my nearly new baby for sale, as it has gotten too loud. It is a male baby, nearly 28 inches (70 cm) long and can be used either in a baby carrier or a stroller."<br><br>Whether your think it's funny or not is one thing, but how could anyone take that ad seriously?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jackie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 27th 2008 6:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, as a joke, it is still a bit much--- to post it on the INTERNET??<br>I mean, if for some reason you feel you must joke like that, do it around your friends or something, not on the freakin' internet. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zari]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 3:15PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have 3 kids...i myself would never list my children on Ebay...but people do joke and from the add it sounds like a joke...i'm sure if she really wanted to get rid of her baby,she would have found other ways of doing so...<br>    Maybe she has alot of people that know her on Ebay and wanted to make them laugh...this world is SO screwed up from the people that really do these things.that we can not joke.when u can't joke anymore and things are taken to such extremes we might as well be in prison...this poor lady...i'm sure she will never joke agian...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tina]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 1:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well joke or not, people know we are coming to a world were things like this can't go on. I don't feel sorry for her, she's an adult and should have know better. I'm sure alot of woman who can't have their own, would find this very insulting for a joke. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carrie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 11:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[I saw an ad for a child on Craigslist and alerted the police here in Tucson Az. and they refused to do anything about it.  Thank goodness Canada and Germany take these things seriously.  I feel sorry for the poor children who are listed because this kind of thing is never a joke.  Maybe more people should be outraged and report sucj things.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 12:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[That is just simply SAD.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David Lapp]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 6:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree.  If was a joke does  not have to be listed on the internet on E-bay.  How would friends even know where to go and find?  I think she tried to play off as a joke to cover herself.  Obviously, did not work.  I say put her on the internet under incompetent moms with picture.  Next time try sending an email to your friends.   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DVH]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 8:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't think it was a joke.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[shernavaz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 30th 2008 1:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[I FEEL SORRY FOR ANY CHILD THAT HAS A MAMA OR DADDY WHO JUST DON'T CARE.CHILDREN SHOULD BE LOVED AND CARED FOR, NOT HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS OR ANYTHING BAD HAPPEN TO THEM.

How could somebody actually BID on a baby? It SHOULD have been listed just as a "Buy It Now", instead. <br>Either way it's a bad idea.... EBay doesn't even have a catagory for it, so you'd just be wasting your money on the listing. <br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bruce]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 10:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[<br>This is just a disgrace to think that anyone, especially a new Mother could even joke about this. Is this what we have come too, that things are so disperate. There is simply no excuse.  What utter disregard for <br>for another human being.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pat Raunick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2008 10:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Woman Tries to Sell Baby on eBay]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/05/27/woman-tries-to-sell-baby-on-ebay/</guid><description><![CDATA[It seems unlikely that this was a joke.  It certainly isn't funny, even if the wording is meant to be.  The police are right to take the baby away until she has a psychological examination.  They'll really catch h*ll if it turns out she was serious and something happens to the poor little guy.  This family needs prayer.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Evelyn]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 29th 2008 12:15AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
