Scary things on ebay

[chriscavell]

Lst night I was looking for prices on a case to carry my bits and pieces around in and came across a store.
Looking through the products they sold I saw that they were selling ear piercing guns....scary enough until I saw that they were selling them for 99p (excl postage)!!!

Tried reporting it to Ebay but there wasnt a suitable category so I just stuck it in any old one and little room to put a decent explanation, personally I cant see them removing it but to me thats totally irresponsible!

This is why most professionals give ebay a wide berth for products and equipment for beauty/nail use,
experience from many has found that the products are either copies or of poor quality and shipped in from overseas where they don't have the same guidelines to follow as we do.

Give this link a look at, they have a large fabric case on wheels for a very reasonable price that could be perfect for you
(it is against site rules for me to put the price here x)

I agree it is so irresponsible. A friend of mine who is training to be a tattooist brought her whole kit from ebay until I told her the reasons why she shouldn't she has since got rid of it and brought it all properly thank god, ebay need to have some sort of regulations regarding this stuff, but I doubt it will ever happen. xx

I made the same mistake i bought a gel kit off ebay and omg
the gel was all so stiff i have to put it on top of the UV lamp so i can use it the white and pink wern't white and pink i don't know what they were, they were from hong kong and also got acrylic off there
This is why when i see acrylic nails i get jealous cos there all clear but yet mine are always dull and cloudy cos of my crappy stuff i did purchase it like a year ago before i was even doing nail extensions now i'm using proper products

Somethings r ok to get off there but i don't recommend products!!

:lol: my other half made a comment when I started looking at them.

Thanks for the info

Last time I checked they hadnt removed them, I just dont see how its in any way safe to be selling that on an auction site. I had the top of my ears pierced with a gun only to find out later on (when in much pain) that it shouldnt be dont that way. Now If that happened in a insured salon how the heck are people with no qualifications going to know not to do that?

No surprise there hun, Ebay is at the end of the day a business, and just like most they are in it to make money
I just dont see how its in any way safe to be selling that on an auction site. Its not.

People with no qualifications should not be doing any treatments full stop.
