natzzz   10 #1 Posted June 22, 2013 Well a couple of hours ago I was scanning through a For Sale in Sheffield page on Facebook when I came across something which seriously shocked me. It appears it has now been deleted.  Basically it was a young lady advertising her puppy (17 short weeks) for sale. She's moving out of her mums house and can't take the dog and her mum can't keep it. (Not so shocking these days) then at the end of the post it said 'will also swap for a decent phone'  Is it just me that finds this absolutely disgusting? I'm used to people selling due to moving, no time etc but wanting to swap your pet for a new phone, that's a new level to me.

Arrr Sez I Â Â 10 #5 Posted June 22, 2013 does she cook and clean? My partner is looking for a well trained one! Â She's a bit battered around the edges, I'd be prepared to do her up a bit for a good swap. She functions quite well but you know how it is after a while, they slow down don't they.

Â What if you were offered a brand new iphone 5 with a 24 month contract paid in full with unlimited calls and texts? Surely then you would?

natzzz   10 #11 Posted June 23, 2013 Not one I've seen, must be banned or blocked already  I saw it read the post it had only been on minutes but had lots of replies, I didn't get to read them as when I checked back it had been deleted. Then a post regarding the girl swapping her dog for a phone was put on and deleted as it was just one big argument and people having a go at her.  I doubt it will stop her, she only looks 15 years old. I just feel sorry for the poor dog. Couldn't really tell what it was, looked like a black mongrel a bit border collie x looking.  Also there was a post regarding a man in page hall walking round last night apparently trying to sell a jack russell, people were claiming it may have been stolen. I'm not sure how true any of that is though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Plain Talker   11 #12 Posted June 23, 2013 What if you were offered a brand new iphone 5 with a 24 month contract paid in full with unlimited calls and texts? Surely then you would?  Not even if I were offered all the tea in China, would it make me part with my pair of little tinkers!
