The Best of eBay
I'm sure many of us have come across some weird and/or funny shit on eBay. I'll start:

Here's another good one.
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...tem=2052699485 Even though it's in German, you can get the basic gist of it. This guy was selling a motherboard with CPU and memory on eBay ("everything you need", according to the guy above). Unfortunately, instead of copying his own pictures, he linked directly to some on 2cpu.com -- a big no-no, especially for something like eBay where you're gonna generate tons of hits and suck up a noticeable portion of the other site's bandwidth. So, the friendly folks at 2cpu.com decided to switch the pictures on him. Even better, eBay won't let you change an auction after it starts (only add stuff to the bottom), so he couldn't fix the links. (Here's the two images they switched, in case the eBay listing expires: http://www.2cpu.com/Hardware/thunder...xeon_close.jpg http://www.2cpu.com/Hardware/thunder...board_shot.jpg ) |
This one's great:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...item=927013748 It's a picture of a cat looking at a picture of Enimem's house on eBay. Talk about meta-eBay. |
Oh my Gawd. Even funnier than the fact that this person is selling a picture of their cat, and a shitty picture at that (hello! it's called "color balance"), is that 15 people have bid on it, and it's going for $10.50!
Jeez oh pete.. I'm in the wrong business! |
Heehee

I'm not sure which is weirder, the fact that there is an original, or a duplicate. |

And if you believe anyone will actually pay that, you've been taking hits on that big bong. |
