...because the owls haven't found the sandwiches yet...

Frikkin' eBay squatters...

Sunday, 12. October 2008, 19:35:57



Sorry, just a quick post.....P:

So, I was bidding on some CDs on eBay, and my mom was sitting with me...

I put in a higher bid because Iw as outbid, and then they did, too!!!

This happened about ten times before I just upped it by about ten dollars...

My mom goes, "Hunh, they're really sitting on it. What IS this piece of shit?"

I just laughed and laughed and laughed!!!

She was getting into it, too, yelling at me, "Ooh! they got you again! Quick!!"

It was the most hilarious thing all week~:heart:

What was the end price and what for?

Cois 13. October 2008, 08:47

Sometimes the person selling the stuff puts in 'shell bids' as to up the price.. If the shell outbids you then later the seller gives you a 'special offer'. This makes you feel so good and special you don't even realise you're paying way too much the item..
Damn shell bidders :irked:

Aadil 13. October 2008, 10:48

Oh money, money, money, :sing: .
Must be funny :sing: .
In the rich mans world. :sing:

Miss Perceived 13. October 2008, 17:12

That's the Shigen I know! xD

Stomyr 14. October 2008, 10:22

:smile:

Red 16. October 2008, 19:23

Some CDs for, like, 30BPD (Whazzat, anyone know??)... It cponverted to, like, forty bucks.

Aww... Money's not funny, Aadil...

I DO love that song, however.....P:

Lolz, RI!!

But of COURSE......:rolleyes:......XD

Heeey~!

Somty~!

Stomyr 16. October 2008, 21:42

hi

Deke 17. October 2008, 01:24

How close to closing was the auction? I find it's a waste of money bidding too soon before closing time.

Aadil 18. October 2008, 19:39

Here's one from "Fideler on the Roof"
:sing: .
If I were a rich man,
di di, di di, di di, di di, di di, di di, di di dum.
:sing:.
I'd have one long staircase going up, and one even longer coming down.

Deke 19. October 2008, 16:39

You'd think Topol would have learned all the words before he went into the studio.

I came down the stairs the other day. It would have been stupid to go up them, they weren't pointing that way.

Red 19. October 2008, 23:39

hi!!!!

Uhm... About a half hour or so when the guy kept outbidding me...

And then I put one in at the last minute or so....P:

:applauds Aadil:

Niiice~!

:sing:~!

.....:rolleyes:

WAITAMINTUE!?

Stairs don;t point...??

DO they...!?

:looks at stairs:

:keeps looking:

:falls asleep:

Aadil 20. October 2008, 16:39

Moving stairs, (aka escalators) either go up or down. :whistle: .
Now if I can just figure out where they go to at the top/bottom :sherlock:

Red 20. October 2008, 23:41

Ooh~!!!

I can help you there:

Once, I was at a mall...

...I THINK in Atlantic City- But don;t hold me to it, lol- and here was an escalator with glass on the sides and you could see the stairs fold themselves up and go around and around~:heart:

My dad and I were transfixed for about ten solid minute. :lol::lol:

Deke 21. October 2008, 20:28

I bet you didn't notice the bit where they transmorphrigfied back to their own little escalatoroid planet for a tea break and then beamed back via a space/time portal so no one would see they'd been gone.

It's like second nature to them.

Aadil 22. October 2008, 17:09

Ya weren't supposed to ruin the illusion ya git! :lol:

Deke 22. October 2008, 19:56

I hang my head in shame.

I have a cupboard there for this very purpose...

Cois 22. October 2008, 22:26

awww qlue you big meanie.. Make Deke come out the closet :whistle:

Deke 23. October 2008, 00:36

Only my head is in the... closet, did you call it? By Jimminy, I'll have you know that where I come from the closet is the home of Mr. Crapper's greatest invention. I would never put my head in there without vast recompense.

[Thinks: I'd better put my prices up. The way the credit crunch is going someone may be able to afford it soon if I'm not carefull.]

Meanwhile my headless body is coming 'round to haunt you.

Well it would if I could see where you were.

And if I was actually dead...

:rolleyes:

Let's forget all this and start again shall we?

So. That Tina Fey. D'yall think she'll make a good president then?

Aadil 23. October 2008, 16:22

Ok, :left: .
Ya kinda lost me on the politics thing.

Deke 23. October 2008, 23:07

OK, imagine Poli is a parrot and tics is a time bomb.

Feed the parrot the time bomb.

At some point everything blows up and makes one helluva mess.

That's politics that is.

Aadil 24. October 2008, 23:17

:lol: I've always said that politics was more dangerous than any other ticks.

Deke 24. October 2008, 23:35

Indeed, it was the absence of ticks on my exam pages that prevented me from becoming king of the world.

Now look what a mess it's in.

Cois 26. October 2008, 09:58

:rolleyes:

Red 26. October 2008, 21:22

:lol:

...Why are forgetting the headless body?

Now its trapped in space somewhere... Way to carefully dispose of your clones....P:

I looove Tina Fey~!

Did you see the Saturday Nights Live bits?

And, no, I missed the escalstos-pieces trammorphing-or-whatever, lol. Qlue's right- Waaay to ruin it for meeee!!!! :cry:

:lol::lol:

Red 26. October 2008, 21:27

...How did we start on this escalator train, again? :lol:

Aadil 27. October 2008, 00:34

It all started when I sang a song from an old musical. :whistle:

Red 29. October 2008, 12:39

What musical WAS it? :D++

Cois 29. October 2008, 23:20

:sst: It was a YMCA thing

Red 4. November 2008, 02:05

Hmm...

I see.....:eyes:?!

Kimberly 4. December 2008, 06:33

i have some stuff that i put on e-bay every once in a while, and stuff that i bid on as well.

and ur right cois, a lot of ppl do that. i almost got stuck up in one like that one time, but....

i caught on too fast for them and just said hell with it and went somewhere else on e-bay and got the same thing for less than what the one person was offering it for...lmao

Red 18. December 2008, 13:11

Cool~!

Iwanna sell some stuff, but I ehar it costs to do that...

Yehh...

Shell bids suckkkk!!! :yuck:

But I wanted Plastic Box, adn no one else there was selling it, and it had been going on Amazon for about thirty bucks more than on eBay, so I just went for it. :yes:

Deke 18. December 2008, 23:08

Right after the crudit crench a whole lot of items from my massive 'Bid when they're cheap enough' list came up at once and they all went for one bid or even went unsold. Massively annoying, but I simply couldn't afford to buy all of them even if I did have time to monitor Ebay 24 hours a day.

Grunch (And other noises of niscustification)...

Red 2. January 2009, 20:20

Lol.

So things are cheap right now? :eyes:!!

:zips over to eBay:

Aadil 3. January 2009, 11:10

The musical is called. 'Fiddler On The Roof.'

Red 4. February 2009, 18:16

....Wait.

Waht musicsl? :ko:

Kimberly 5. February 2009, 00:46

lol

Red 13. October 2009, 21:10
