The  little c stands for "with." It usually appears on a prescription with a line above it. Take tablet with water etc. So I would have been taken in by the title also.

Waving frantically to cat's - all be it a little late.

 

On topic - as I said earlier - deceptive title and seller has been on eBay long enough to know better.

 

Edited to wave to digi as well

A few have asked about what the "c" stands for. It stands for "see" in mobile sms text. So the title could be a clever play on words.

I'm part of the 'old school' in classified advertising in newspapers, so back then a small 'c' would have stood for 'complete with'.

If the title contains tex speak then it has misfired badly on the seller.

There would be many ebayers who are not familiar with it.  Sellers should remember that they are not texting when listing and use plain English.

Somehow I don't think the OP was looking for the sort of response she has receivedMan Very Happy

 

Absolutely agree about text speak, should never be used unless using a phone.
