some of eBay's finest....
« on: February 24, 2005, 04:02:50 AM »
haha.. just came across another auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=36105&item=7136067492&rd=1

Who would steal a house ball... and then try and sell it on eBay?

and only $75.75 in shipping charges...  almost too good to turn down.

Awesome...

Chances are that the other ball and bag were also stolen, doncha' think?

It happens to arrive in a horse-drawn carriage with either Teri Hatcher or Brad Pitt inside of it.  Now, the shipping charges aren't so bad...

More likely its "Hairball".

I love the question asked (in the auction)...

quote:

Q:   Would you just sell the bag for whatever the aution price ends with? Do not need the balls.
      Thanks, Linda

A: Sure, it would save in shipping.


think it would save like $70 worth of shipping?  I think I could load up a crate full of rocks and send them for less...

Teri Hatcher, it would definitely be worth it. Brad Pitt doesn't do a thing for me. Each to his own.
