So, bored at work, and browsing thru the 'weird' section.

I've seen these types of auctions before, but what is the deal with them??

How could you trust someone so much and bid on something for that much?? And not even really knowing what you've bid on.

Maybe some of you can shed some light on this for me.

Or maybe it's as crazy as I think it is!

Looks like some kind of scam to me...but I am a bit cynical.

I think that if something looks to good to be true than it probably is......Unfortunately there are some people who will be taken in by auctions like this. I people want to help other then there are other more legitimate ways of doing so.

Look at the second feedback, the person didnt pay for an item, doesnt sound like someone who has loads of money to "give away" to me!!! If it is too good to be true IT IS! LOL.

Why would someone who had money to burn be buying .99 speakers ???  Gotta be somebody trying to get on the news or something.  Like the lady who rented her forehead on ebay...she actually tattooed her head with the winning bidders company logo.  :crackup:

The item is no longer on ebay when I tried to have a look, so I guess it has been pullled ...
Put in a joke perhaps??

Seriously though, MY YORKIES thought it was a real Yorkie! My little one was growling and barking at it when I took it out of the box!

Bronwen, love the avatar!
It was a 'mystery box' auction. You'll find lots if the 'weird' section.

It promises to send you a mystery box full of cash.

Man, why would you give cash away, for less money than it's worth? No-one would do that, yet there are people out there wher have bid thousands.

Ok, so it's not just me then.

If you guys are ever bored, look through that catagory. Crazy stuff I would never bid on! :crackup:
