Re: 22 bids, $335.00 for INFORMATION about an Xbox 360 Game Console
Well isn't that special.
You would think eBay would add a filter to prevent these "information" type auctions from being listed--but they don't : ...of course you would also think that buyers would read the description and realize they were bidding on information and not the actual product--but they don't. :
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"
"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site. best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011 |
