EBay halted an auction this week and suspended a Taiwanese user who allegedly tried to sell three Vietnamese girls on the internet site for a starting bid of $US5,400 ($A7,341).
The auction, which began March 2 on eBay's Taiwan site, did not include a detailed description of the goods for sale but said the "items" were from Vietnam and would be "shipped to Taiwan only".
The site included five photos of three people. One dark-haired woman in a white shirt wore makeup and blue nail polish, and the other two appeared to be girls no older than their early teens.
The 10-day auction had a starting price of 180,000 Taiwanese dollars, or $US5,411 ($A7,356).
