LOL about time. This kind of thing was on the table since late 1998 when UO housing started to become a market there.

And I was just about to buy that Attract a sex slave spell. Damn.

You still have a few days to order!! And anyway she probably has a 1-800 line for all your arcane needs.

Hot damn! I better start dialing! I wanna get all the voodoo and enchantments I can get! Maybe I can have her cast a luck spell so I can find a boxed copy of wolfenstien.

Oh, man....there goes the opportunity to find a Girdle of Giant Strength +3 on ebay. I wonder if I'll miss a Ring of Invisibility too....sigh....

Guys you crack me up 😀

*Reads comments on the "news"*

What the.... is he/she serious in selling a dragon spirit? I mean,...really?

This is part of the description I saw there :

You have a chance to bid on a Real Life Dragon!He's in spirit,but very much real.You will see. […]

He does all you would expect him to.Breathes fire the whole kit and kaboodle.(The old lady would use this to reheat her meals on wheels.)

You will receive his vessel,a feeding plate(yes you have to feed him),and a potion that helps bonds him to you.Once the potion has run out that bonding process will be complete.

After you own this piece your life will never be the same,& you will never want it to be ever again.

Looks like an interesting offer. But a 100 dollars for a dragon spirit? I'm skeptical because the price is cheap. Is it a retired dragon?

Wait, I'm also wondering about :

1. What if he accidentally sends a European Dragon, rather than an Asian Dragon spirit?

2. What if he accidentally sends an Acid Spitting Dragon, rather than a Fire Breathing one?

3. How the heck do I know if it's an Asian Dragon Spirit?

4. Feed him? What....err...knights? Where am I gonna find knights? England? And do Asian Dragons like English Knights?

5. And the Bonding Potion - is it I who have to drink it or do I force the Dragon to drink it? If so, where do I find the mouth on a Spirit Dragon?

I wonder how did the Grandma got hold of this Asian Dragon Spirit...

Further icing on the cake :

"Returns: No returns or exchanges, but item is covered by eBay Buyer Protection"

"Shipping: FREE Economy Shipping"

I forgot to add....

I wonder how he's planning to "pack and send" the dragon spirit... Is he just gonna tie around the printout of my ebay order details, (which contains my address) around the dragon's ankle, just above it's talons, and ask it to fly towards my place? And I'm guessing he'll just hang the Bonding Potion around it's neck at the same time.

Or maybe not...maybe he'll just stuff the "spirit" in a bottle, and put a label on it "To Malaysia, With Love" with the US stamps.

Hehehe
The dragon spirit costs 15$ to ship in canada (with usps)

I like the part when it says:
"I cannot risk posting a picture of something so powerful."
Thats golden 🤣

Usually where there is the spirit of some mystical being for sale, it is supposedly bound to an item like a ring or pendant or some other small trinket that can easily be sent cheaply through the mail. I think the reason why ebay is banning these things is solely because of the fact that buyer protection does cover it. The seller can make any outlandish claim they want to and then when it turns out to be false, ebay is the one who has to repay the buyer and not the seller of the item.

So if I sell a friend of mine a genie in a bottle for $10,000 and they don't file a complaint until after I have already spent or withdrawn the money, ebay pays them back and they can't get the money from me because it's already gone. Metaphysical items are also potential money laundering scams. Someone gets a cracker jack ring and says they have cast a magic spell on it or bound a magical spirit to it then sell it for hundreds or thousands of dollars. They do this a few hundred times a year using various associates and they can transfer a large amount of money in short time in a manner that is less traceable than using Western Union.

That's not true. eBay doesn't usually handle money at all. (With regard to the transaction, anyway. eBay does collect seller/listing type fees after the fact)

PayPal refunds the buyer from the seller's account. If the seller has no PayPal credit, PayPal will go to the seller's linked accounts. If there are no linked accounts, PayPal will go to debt collection.

The eBay+PayPal system is heavily stacked toward the buyer.

However, since eBay owns PayPal, and this process would incur administrative costs, it's no surprise they're banning this kind of rubbish. 😀
