click on the link to go to the ebay page, but tell everyone you know, or make a bid yourself, if you want to actually buy it.
tell everyone!!


AFTER THE WORD EBAY AND AFTER THE WORD CATEGORY, IN THE LINK THERE ARE SPACES, BECAUSE YOU CANT POST 70 CONSECUTIVE LETTERS, SO WHEN YOU CLICK THE LINK IT WONT WORK, BUT THEN ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS REMOVE THE SPACE, AND IT WILL LOAD THE RIGHT PAGE

Sorry, does anyone else smell that bulls**t?

Oh and the "fake e-bay auction" gag has been done to death so you'll forgive me if I don't join in the laughter.

well, i have enough money to pay it, if it did come to that.
but theres no chance i would pay that in the first place.
i would inform ebay that the person didnt pay, and i wouldnt be paying the 308 quid.
everytime ive sold something on ebay ive only ever paid when the person pays me.

No that's AS SOON AS THE AUCTION IS OVER! Read the fine print. They will always assume the transaction is done. If you've sold on ebay before you dont tell ebay whether the transaction was complete or not. You get charged, then you have to apply for a refund if they don't pay. So I hope you have £308.44 in your bank to pay for this.

It cost you £2.00 listing, £0.50 sub title and 17.5% VAT will be added on. So a total wasted of £2.94 on your part.

Then if anyone bids (such as yourself or a friend) you will be charged £262.50 plus VAT on top of that.

Yes, it might just happen...

You're an idiot.

Everyone's having a go at you because you think that you've got a great idea of something to sell. You think it will attract national TV coverage like the other one.

It won't.

It's been done before.

You've just wasted your money, there's nobody who would bid for that honestly. Maybe if you added more details, a piccy, laid it out better and other stuff it may have got some interest but you've just made a pathetic auction that will get looked right over.
