Using Ebay to find a sponsor?

Check this out:

Would you spend that kind of money and not even know who you are backing?  I don't think so.....

And how many typos can you find in his listing:

"sponership needed. 10,000 dollars will be used for tournament entrys, equipment, practice and lodging for PBA.  any earnings will go towards repaying sponser.  will pay off 15,000 if sponsered. any money not used for bowling will be giving back to sponsor. any charges made by e-bay will be including in sponsorship."


HIs auction gave me a lot of confidence in his abilities...

The "ask the seller a question" button is tempting...

Maybe he is one heck of a bowler, but really sucks at spelling. At least we could only hope.

Well, guys - if spelling were a criteria of posting here, there would be a lot less posters to worry about!

But I agree - the auction spelling is atrocious.
