    I hope you're not meaning to say Japanese police Grouchy, because that would be quite a low thing to say. There's never been an instance where any adult attempted to sell a baby online in Japan, even those who often criticize Japanese parenting would know better than to make such accusations. And even if such thing happened, any police force in the world regardless of country would act. Period.

    Most likely overzealous police overreacted - the plain talk with the extravagant and too proud parents would work.

    Obviously a joke, but there are some jokes you shouldn't make; like joking about haveing a bomb at the airport.

    All deals are final. No returns, refunds or exchanges. While supplies last.

    and can be used either in a baby carrier or a stroller

    heh....seems pretty funny to me. Obviously if there is evidence of abuse then the baby should be taken away, but one joke listing on eBay shouldn't be the deciding factor.
