Brilliant idea for an eBay auction! (1 Viewer)

[theBaron]

OK, this guys is a genius! I just saw this auction:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Land-of-th...-Figure-/112805670564?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276

For what must be no up-front cost, he's going to get six bucks or more from some sucker, and charge that sucker an additional five bucks in the process. Absolutely brilliant, or chutzpah, or both!

His seller ID is significant--"shaftman216"--because anyone who buys this is getting the shaft, that's for sure.

Well, as Harry Anderson used to say, "A fool and his money were lucky to get together in the first place."

Prost!

PS-I am not connected with this auction or seller in any way. It just showed up in my "character figure search" on eBay.

Brad...
I remember that show...
it was pretty cheesy...
but his props looks similar to the shows...
like you...
I would be a little ashamed of the auction...
but to each his own...

Oh, sure, they look like the props, to be sure. I just think it's brilliant. Like I said, no money up front. He looked in an odd kitchen drawer or two, and came away with gold. "I used only the finest matches and safety pins...." "Authentic string!"

Prost!

too funny Brad...

Surely he must be violating some U.S. Post Office Rule / Regulation proposing to send "live Matches" in the post ! And what about us international bidders, he could be crossing more than datelines with the Safety pin if left open !{eek3}
