Chinese Baby Up For Auction Online

If we’re honest, this was bound to happen eventually. Last year, an Australian man put his entire life up on sale on eBay, and even found a buyer willing to pay $7,500 for the guy’s house, car, friends – everything he had except his wallet and passport.

Now, trust the Chinese to go one better. An uncle in the city of Zhangsu in Jiangxi Province placed this ad on the online store aggregator Taobao.com last week.

It seems innocent enough until you realise the lot up for auction is the baby. That’s right, and bidding starts at just ¥1, with shipping included.

The man, identified in the advert as Mr Hu, explains he was prepared to send his niece into the unknown “because we want a boy, therefore decided to give (her) away to family of fate”.

And he doesn’t stop there, the advert comes with a whole spec like a second hand car. We’re told the baby’s father has good health and a college education, and that the baby’s mother has fair skin and big eyes. The “kid’s also got the big eyes,” the ad continues, “very cute, hope everyone will think for the child”. Sincere buyers could meet the girl in person, it concluded.

After the issue exploded onto the Chinese webverse, Taobao located the page, removed it and shut down the man’s account.

The ironic thing is that, half the time, they'd normally just kill the child and ram it down a well... yet it's only when something public and sensational like this happens that anyone gives a damn.

Oh well, more "nice culture, assholes"-type news from China, like the orphanage footage in Audio and Video of kids tied down to little toilets day in and day out, rocking back and forth eternally because they've gone insane from lack of stimulation and human contact.

But let's hold the Olympics in China to show them we don't think they're subhuman animals! Join hands, everyone!
