it's against ebay rules for one thing.

also the seller cannot vet the buyer, and I would want to make sure I could check them out at least a bit before selling anyone one of my animals...

The first part - fair enough its agaisnt ebay rules but its not exactly hurting anyone.

The second part - thats your opinion thats what YOU do. How do you think online breeders sell to people? They don't usually ask a bunch of questions ask them to fill out a questionnaire they just ship them, atleast if this seller feels they are not a good choice for the snake they can simply refund the money or something.

Well report it then, if it upsets you.......ebay rules are stupid.

How do you know an animal you have sold to someone you 'checked out' has not gone and sold it on to another person.
