They work on the principle that if Royal mail accept it then they can be listed, royal mail accept inverts and fish for special delivery, so ebay allw the listings.

Default Feeder Food

All insects on ebay are usually sold as feeder food for fish and reptiles and those that arnt (spiders and giant centipedes) normally have the listing removed by ebay

well i think thats wrong - inverts are inverts!
how can they allow insects to be sold and not other inverts? doesnt make sense at all. especialy as royal mail will allow the posting of inverts.

altho i have seen spiders sell on ebay so it may be possible if you can get it past their sensors but surely postage of spiders aint a good idea or you could always say collection only which would be much better
