Oh dear :(
This is the kind of thing I really worry about.
Selling human milk?
Quality control?
and...this just about puts the tin lid on it (as we say in jolly old
England)....if you go to the advertised website:
        Earthbaby Online      http://www.earthbaby.com/
you will see this little gem:

*We care! A portion of every sale goes to La Leche League.*
Even has an LLLI Logo, sigghhhh, so it looks legit.

Mother has been tested for diseases such as HIV with NEGATIVE results of
course. My baby just doesn't like to use a bottle while I work so I have all
this extra milk I have pumped. Buyer is responsable for shipping." and the
link to the auction is
