bfrank

Sorry

I got to the plugs in the first thread before I came home. But still dont understand teh second auction?

I just thought this thread was about an ebay scam, so I never opened it

nazz

You think you're confused .... I don't understand the second auction and I was second highest bidder.

Now somebody please tell me what I owe Preacher!

Preacher

- $2.75 from the top 3 bidders including the winner. (total of ~ $8.00 in fees for the transaction) As stated I'll pay for the cost of putting up the auction.

Formula: 5.25% of the initial $25 ($1.31),
plus 2.75% of the remaining closing value balance ($25.01 to $1,000)

Venusian

brett, keep reading thru the end of the first thread, it explains the plan. send it all back to the seller. but first resell the crayons to make him keep wondering why they went for so much. all that is explained in the first thread. this thread is just monitoring the auction. nothing good has happend yet (like mailing the stuff back)

cultshock

Hey yeah, when is that supposed to happen??

Preacher

Okay, Nazz is paid off. Thank you.

- Shipping is the same problem. No place to ship it. I think the crayons will be making a visit here on the weekend. Always have a backup plan.

*whew* Just did a re-read of all 27 pages since I had nothing to do at work. Good hour and a half of fun. Stomach hurts from trying to hold the laughter in.

Butt plugs.

twikoff

butt plugs help hold the laughter in?

PixyJunket

Maybe that's why my stomach hurts!

Preacher

nazz and strife are paid off. Thank you both.

strife

no problem next week you get your feedback

SirPablo

Good read...but what about the NE guy who sold the crayons in the first place? All the humor of this long thread is tied up in the fact that he had to be following what was going on.

I just want closure on what NE-anal man thinks of all this.

Preacher

Last I heard Buford T Pusser was sending him an email. No news I saw since.

Buford T Pusser

Yep. On page six I posted this:

I just sent the original seller this:

I thought $18 was high, but did you see these crayons that just sold for $266? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...tegory=158&rd=1

Are these the same ones you had or different? What is the deal with the price? Do you have any more that you'd like to sell?

We'll see if he answers.




I'll send the same email again and see if the second time is the charm. Maybe he's shellshocked and in denial.

Venusian

whats the update with sending the stuff back?

ProjectMayhem

You realize that poor guy probably committed suicide?

Or was that the objective?

nazz

Analcide. Not a pretty sight.

AlienZZZ

As long as he didn't use his butt-plug's to do it........

Would be such a shock for the family...

RandyC

There is a famous picture on the internet that shows it's not easy to go that way.
