    Hilarious eBay Auction

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...tem=4633452260


    Best I have EVER seen


    Transcript here for when the eBay url expires:
    http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/05..._email_trauma/



    I recon somebody posted the link in a forum and just tons of people gathered to ask random questions... the only thing I can think of, it's definitely not a coincidence.


    Edit: This had me crying lol

    Again no swaps. What is it with people, when I say no swaps please don't take it as a challange. I have been offfered a caravan, 12 cars, 1 lorry, to have my garden landscaped, some rare fish, and I'm sorry but the very kind gent (Donald) who offered me a weekend with his wife (and him it would appear) I have a special message for you. The pictures you sent me of your wife did not, in all honesty help. Some of them looked more like a traffic accident than something that I might remotely find alluring. I am sure that if you set up your own website (assuming that it's not illegal) there will be plenty of sad sacks (many from ebay land going by this experience) who will indulge your (and your wifes) desires.

    Call me mister cynical but looking the page he links to a blogpage which is the same name as his ebay account.

    On the blog it states his job is a "creative consultant" and has worked with the government and various big companies.

    Co-incidence?
