I won't go into the pitfalls of buying a non-tangable item off Ebay so -
Try breaking your email address up and putting parts on different lines, add a character into it somewhere and tell the seller to remove it. That should confuse the ebay bot.

The reading was ' A fool and his money are soon parted'

No, you don't. Not permitted on Ebay.
No items listings policy
Not allowed
Items where the value is placed on an intangible factor โ for example, but not limited to, listings that offer someone's "soul", spells, potions, hexes, curses, prayers, blessings, psychic or tarot readings, remote healing sessions, and advice are not allowed

The 'reader' is in the US, so probably have paid with PayPal. All sounds a bit sus to me. Anyone can write a heap of nothing and the person getting the reading can read anything they like into it. I believe there are true psychics, heck, I used to live with one and he scared the daylights out of me because he could read minds too, but there are so many fruitcakes out there just out to make a quick buck.
My flatmate was scary with the mind reading. I put him to the test a few times. We were sitting there one night just watching TV, not talking or anything, just watching the show and I thought to myself "he is such an **bleep**hole (and lots of other rude names" and in the blink of an eye he looked at me and said "why do you think I'm an **bleep**hole (and all those other rude names)? I've never done anything to hurt you". Another night I was sitting there watching TV and thought to myself "I don't feel like getting dinner tonight" and he turned and looked at me and said "you don't have to, I'll fix it".
He did a Tarot reading for me the day I moved in. I took it with a grain of salt. Pretty much everything he told me that day has happened, including the full name of the bloke I marriied (10 years before we even met), the fact we would leave the city and move to the country and named the town. He said we would live here for a year and then buy a house (which we did, almost to the date). He correctly named the street. He told me I would never have children, but the man I married would have 2 and he named them. He said my sister would marry and have 2 kids and named both of them (she had just left school at this stage) There was so much other stuff which I didn't believe at the time, but remember when it actually happens.
People like him don't generally offer their services for auction on eBay. People like usually don't charge for their service, they just offer it when needed. I'd always be skeptical of someone auctioning off 2 questions on eBay, but that's just me.

If the 'reader' was a genuine psychic, wouldn't he already know the buyers email addresses? Especially as she has now bought 2 readings!
