I have come across numerous ebay listings from sellers with too much lies too much of hiding details..

Just today saw this item...

And the item description was true from heart IMHO...

http://cgi.ebay.in/180726587776#ht_942wt_1139

It has attracted bids and had a hearty laugh at the end...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


Read his question and answer section without fail guys!!!!

Since eBay listings 'disappear' (are deleted from the server) a little while after the auction ends, it would help to copy the text here for posterity. :mrgreen:

Quote:
You are bidding on a TomTom Go 700

This was my wife's, may her knicker draw be infested with the fleas of a thousand Camels...

I bought this for the back-stabbing harlot, some four or five years ago, before she met Nigel with the Little Penis, and it cost me over £400...

As bless her cheating little heart, she gets lost driving out of the street...perhaps without this she would never have found the way to Nigels door, nor perhaps his stain riddled bed...

Her infidelity was discovered when I took her car for an MOT, and while waiting, I was tinkering with the Sat Nav and noticed that all her recent journeys had all been to Nigel's...

So, like any normal human, I reprogrammed Nigel's address to one in a town far far away...

My wife bless her treacherous ways, didn't realise there was anything amiss until she was driving East along the M4.

She then tried to act all innocent and lying through her cherry red venemous snake lips, asked if I could sort out her beloved TomTom as something was terribly wrong with it: when she used it to drive to her sisters it took her along the M4.

I presume her sister means Nigel with the erectile problems...

With the anger of the betrayed I said I would, but my frustration and anger caused me to accidently delete all the files from the internal drive instead...

Words were spoken, accusations were made... The air hung heavy and was coloured blue with profanity...

I find it difficult to believe her claims that this is all my fault...

I wasn't the one getting lost while travelling to Pencil Dick Nigel's house...

After much arguing she has decided her future lies in the squallor of Nigel's cockroach infested hovell...

Good luck to them both... may the ten plagues of Egypt visit their stained adulterous bed...

I now have her TomTom Go 700 but have no idea how to reinstall the software, and really I don't want the reminder of the cheating, lying, heartless, creature of the night.

All the other accessories are still in her car, so I hope they are happy living at Nigels together.

As an after thought...

There is no returns for this...I really don't want it back...

The auction Starts at a low but fair £20 and all proceeds will go to taking me out on a bloody good night with copious amounts of alcahol, wine, women, and song...and if the price is right...maybe a curry to boot...

So please bid with confidence that all proceeds are for a very worthy cause...

Question & Answer Answered On

Q: I have read your listing courtesy of my husband and have got to say I find your posting hilarious! I don't need a satnav as I am a rare breed of woman who can read a map but was tempted to bid because your listing is brill. All the very best Mary 23-Sep-2011
A: Hi Mary, thank you... Your husband is a lucky lucky man, women who can read maps are a rare breed, and should be treated accordingly...in some far off countries, women with such skills are stoned to death for practicing witch craft... The SatNav wouldn't be much use to a skilled cartographer such as yourself, it doesn't even have any maps on it... perhaps you might like to use it as a paper-weight to hold your own maps on the dashboard...Or perhaps use it as a club to batter anyone who passes snide comments about your ability to read a map...

Q: do you have the upload lead to connect the tomtom to the computer so it can be re-loaded with software or has the unmentionable taken all the leads 23-Sep-2011
A: She who shall be nameless here for evermore has everything else... I'm sure someone cleverer than I can be load it with software or maps or even the postcode to Nigel with the missing manhood... but I neither know how to do this, where to get the afore mentioned items, nor do I care to be reminded of the ghastly grim and acid maiden for fear of dreams no mortal man should ever be forced to endure...

Q: hi,just wanting to say congratulations on getting rid of your hoe and i hope you party hard lol no idea why she would downsize,it's insanity...my friend tracey loves you too =) 23-Sep-2011
A: Hello to fans of this listing down-under... In fact hello to all readers world-wide... Thanks for the words of encouragement and support. I intend to party and hopefully get hard: rather than just party hard... I have no idea why she would down-size either: it beggers belief... perhaps she thought it'd be easier on gas... she did suffer badly from Gusset Gas, but apparently that's something to do with not everyone being endowed with a baby's arm holding an apple, and because women are designed to accomodate something smaller the resulting damage allows for severe front-bottom flatulance...

Q: picture of wife? 23-Sep-2011
A: Removed from the listing by eBay... apparently it was too horrific and was too upsetting to small children, teenagers, adults, and generally all forms of life, animal, vegetable or mineral on planet earth... A group of pan dimensional beings from the dimension Zeta-b4-Douglas-M found it to be quite pleasant, offering to trade her for a Grrubbihoe, which in Pounds Sterling equates to a quick hand shuffle down the local Red Light District...

Q: You are a top fella dave!!! 23-Sep-2011
A: I'm also really good from beneath or behind aswell...

Q: What a shame that Nigels addres is not still in the Sat Nav, I was looking for a gift for my wife..... 23-Sep-2011
A: Am I to assume you are having marital problems? I can understand why... buying your wife a SatNav as a gift will not make her happy, nor will it get you any action in the bedroom department... Start again with something simple... start with flowers and chocolates, and then work up to lingerie and perfumes... best get to know her size and preference first though... Seriously mate, forget the Gadgets and Gizmo's they're Boy's Toys... Good Luck you're gonna need it...

Q: Hiya Dave, This is a really popular listing I see with over 13000 views so far!!!! I've two suggestions for you....Firstly is to put a link from here to facebook suggesting a party (at a date that would of course be for you to arrange)that is being held at Nigels, and secondly asking each viewer to donate £1 to your wine women and curry night out. Unfortunately I wouldnt be able to attend the party, but if you raise enough in the way of donations would be able to help you with the alcohol women and curry. By the way, you say you bought this item for your wife..how on earth did she attach it to her witches broom? 23-Sep-2011
A: Thanks for your suggestion, It seems there have been many people who have linked this listing to their facebook pages already... But I do like the idea of the party... I will certainly give that some thought...TomTom sell mounting brackets for broomsticks, it's called Duct Tape [pronounced duck tape] and is now commonly accepted by most covens as a replacement for the traditional witches 'familiar'... It seems there have been complaints from the Cat Protection League about kittens falling from broomsticks, or simply being traumatised by flight...

Q: I note that you have one negative comment in your feedback. It's strange, but I think that eBay have made a mistake in attaching yours ex-wife's feedback from something she bought from Nigel, to you. She complains that this was "not a replacement as described" and then goes on to say that she is now "board". Not only is she the way she is, but she can't spell either. A woman who is indifferent to the vows of marriage is terrible. A woman that adopts a random approach to spelling and grammar is terribly stupid. Trusting that happy chance delivers you a lady on your night out who is neither terrible nor stupid. Oh... and a curry too! 23-Sep-2011
A: How nice to see there are still Pedagogues in the world... how rare to find one presiding over eBay listings... Yes I have had negative feedback - your point being? Some people are never happy... I note that you draw attention to spelling and grammer; but still find it acceptable to spell 'can't' and 'it's' with question marks instead of the traditional apostrophes used in accordance with the Oxford English Dictionary... and you added a question mark to the sentence 'She complains that this was ?not a replacement as described?'... I therefore draw your attention to the idiom 'people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones...'

Q: (This Word Auto Censored by Board software!) cow mate plenty more fish in the sea as they say good luck 23-Sep-2011
A: Please refrain from the profanity, there might be children present....Yes indeed she's a total heffer, I cannot understand the logic... she was mated to a ramapnt 'English Longhorn', but decided to find pastures new, I could accept it if she'd gone for the 'Jamaica Black', but it seems she prefers the 'Milking Shorthorn' or perhaps Nigel's a 'Limpurger'....

Q: Are you sure it can be made to work again? I need one for a lady friend who's last one let her down. Regards 'Big Boy' Nigel 23-Sep-2011
A: Anything can be made to work...well apart from the Brazen Slug Hussey... All I will say is, like the harlot, the TomTom is easy to turn on, and just like she who leaves the trail of a snail, it just doesn't do anything else... just sits there looking at you expectantly...

Q: no reply needed 23-Sep-2011
A: So none given... but it begs the question why ask? Still thanks for taking the time to write...

Q: Hi Dave, i am so sorry this has happened to you but hey behind every cloud and all that. so i was wondering are you still in contact with your ex no doubt screaming harlot? and is she a looker?. if yes to both these i wonder if i passed on my post code you could give it to her so she can programme it into her new sat nav (by now)and come and give me a visit. look forward to hearing from you. x 23-Sep-2011
A: Yes every cloud...yadda yadda yadda... mine was toxic... Why Why Why would I still be in contact with Beelzebub's Rhapsody in Scarlet, she made her stain riddled bed, she can go lay her rotting corpse in it... yes she's a 'looker' spelt with 'H'... Why, oh why, oh why, would you want me to pass on your post code are you really that desperate ? Come man grow a pair! Find someone for yourself... you wouldn't wear a strangers pants ! why would you want to embarass yourself with with someone's hand-me-down... If you are still that desperate, or simply unable to find someone for yourself her new postcode is SL4 PP3R

Q: 8ft 4wt fly rod wot the xucks that all about?????? that`s nigel spencer n e banging one of mates called nigel sidebottom, and there lass no`s nowt about it! back to tomtom doe`s it work by any chance????????? cheers 007 23-Sep-2011
A: I wouldn't know anything about who's doing what to whom... why they're doing it or even what they're getting from it... As for the TomTom, well it turns on... If there was maps and software on it then I pressume it'll work properly again...

Q: You are a true hero!! Shame I dont live near Swindon.. I'd gladly take you out for a drink or ten.. nice one.. just love it!! good luck babe -) 23-Sep-2011
A: Yes indeed a shame you don't live near Swindon... I've never been a hero before... Glad this listing has brought you some enjoyment... If you're interested, I know where there's a Sat Nav going cheap if you ever wanted to visit Swindon...

Q: does this Nigel live near Stroud? I know he recently purchased a satnav off ebay that like yours; doesn't work, so there's a possibility he was going to programme that one to send her back home, to a decent willy! as she not found her way back yet? 23-Sep-2011
A: He could buy a thousand Sat Navs for her but she'll never darken these hallowed halls again. It's true, while she was here, she was always moaning with my more than generous helping of manhood... Perhaps it was too much for her so she sought something smaller. Sadly for Nigel it must be like parking a mini in a lorry bay...

Q: I hope you feel better getting all that off your chest.Women like your wife give all women a bad name....please don't judge us all by her. I hope you meet someone who loves you, and will never betray you. Good luck. xxx 23-Sep-2011
A: Thank you for you kind words, I never judge a book by the cover, and I have no reason to tar all women with the same brush...The succubus that I married was one bad apple, but the tree still blossoms every year, some fruits are sweet and juicy, others bitter and sour... My last apple now has a maggot in it.. Perhaps my next, will be one of the Golden Apples of the Hesperides...

Q: hi,im not a nigel lol,but i wish u every luck in selling the tom tom and hope that the next user uses it wisely,and not for the purpose of cheating,good luck,thanks for the laugh its made my day, 23-Sep-2011
A: Hi not a Nigel...Glad this listing has brought a little light into your life, it seems there are many like yourself who have found the TomTom Go 700 such an interesting and enjoyable subject... I assume of course, that it has nothing to do with Nigel's Erectile problems, nor even the floozy of a thousand penetrations, just the TomTom...

Q: dont worry , theres plenty more out there, trust me just take each day as it comes , feel free to get a escort girl for a few nights , go out pull and enjoy yourself , then when your done playing get yourself a 8ft 4wt fly rod set up and join the fish and fly forum , you'll love it, Cheers Spencer 23-Sep-2011
A: Hi Spencer, thanks for the encouragement... However I'm a little confused, surely if I've hired an escort girl then I shouldn't have to 'pull' if I'm paying then she can do the 'pulling' for me !!! I agree there are plenty more fish in the sea, I'm just glad I still have some bait left with which to catch one... Now the Harpie has found another table at which to feast, I intend to enjoy myself, and fully satiate myself...

Q: How do you know Nigel has a small willy? X 23-Sep-2011
A: I've known him since I was twelve, he hasn't grown much over the years...

Q: Just wondering does the Nigel you talk of have ginger hair? as we know a Nigel and were always ribbing him about having a small Nob . 23-Sep-2011
A: Hi, Yes Nigel does have ginger hair... apparently he shaves his genitals because it's easier to find his penis without the pubic hair to hide it...

Someone should ask him if he wants to add this link to the ebay Q+A -

http://www.stampboards.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=30960

THEN, When (not if) ebay cancels the whole lot, Nigel and the Tom Tom can live on forever here!

I'm amazed that a TOM TOM with absolutely nothing going for it has been bid up to £200 !! You can buy a new one for half that amount - maybe people just want to see him have a good time at his 'curry & wench' night.

Classic!! 108,000+ views too! Holy Smokes!! That is amazing, must have been on the news or something somewhere, no? Or a great example at how 'viral' things can quickly become on the internet!

Thanks for the laugh!

151,306 hits on the listing and a warning from ebay!

But ! bet he reckons it was worth it:



On 24-Sep-11 at 10:56:51 BST, seller added the following information:

Warning Warning Warning Warning Warning Warning Warning Warning Warning!!!!


Saturday 24 Septenber 2001

Hi everyone... :wink:

Well what can I say !!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you all doesn't even come close....


eBay have flagged this listing as contrary to their policies !
Although they have not removed it... they with-hold the right to do so...

eBay doesn't allow the use of profanity or vulgar language on the site. This includes language that is racist, hateful, sexual or obscene in nature
If the profane words are part of a title for the item being sold, we allow sellers to 'blurb' out the bulk of the offending word with asterisks (i.e., s*** or f***)

Please Please Please bear this in mind....with your messages

Any messages that are contrary to eBay's policies cannot therefore be listed
As this might cause the listing to be removed

Thanks.....


I am trying to answer all your messages but they arrive faster than I can write....

Thanks Again to everyone :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :wink:

eBay now can't remove it as its becoming the single largest promotion they have ever had - all totally free advertising for them!

Watch the news in the next day or so, he is bound to be on it.

Then watch his little tom-tom go to about £1000.00 guaranteeing a good celebration.

Then watch him get his own 15 minutes of fame and feature in the next Tom-Tom add!

167,700 and rising.
Anyone want to take a stab at the final view count in 4 days?
I'll start it off with an even 1,000,000 hits.

Given that the collective brainpower at eBay seems to be less than Paris Hilton or a bag of crisps (they're about equal :lol: ), there's probably a few staff watching this listing and calling for its removal, not realizing the PR power its having. :idea:

I've just posted it to my facebook page so let's hope my 600+ "friends" all click on it :D

Cheered my weekend up anyway. It made up for the downpour we've just had that put paid to my visit to the local timeshare swimming pool :(

Life is a circle.... I am happy that it made many of you have a hearty laugh... I did..

I got this listing in facebook from one of my friend`s wall...

This man`s wife must be worried now that she ran away from one of the best Advertiser who could sell a 100 GBP stuff to over 1000GBP....

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

who suggested

Post your PayPal email address and I'll send you a couple of bucks for a beer. I'm sure others would be happy to send a buck or two to help you try and kill the brain cells and forget the wench

A really nice thought.. but really I don't deserve that accolade...
Instead anyone who feels similar make a donation to
Cancer Reaserch or Heart Disease Research
both are worthy causes

Maybe some good will come from this listing...

thanks christeon...

This thing is going up 1000 views every 45-60 seconds! 1,000,000 might happen before tomorrow morning, especially with the news spreading on facebook and such!

On 24-Sep-11 at 23:05:05 BST, seller added the following information:


Ignore the rediculous bids everyone it's just the few who want to ruin it for the rest...
I don't care if the SatNav doesn't sell I'm just glad that everyone is enjoying what I wrote...

Alas the question and answer listing is full and there are no more pages...
unless eBay can supply some more....

PLEASE eBay give the people what they want...

Still tomorrow I'll see about joining facebook and maybe meeting some of you all there

What a shame the listing is happered by a few simple minded people... C'est La Vie...



------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On 25-Sep-11 at 03:20:34 BST, seller added the following information:


3am Sunday Morning

I think I need to add some things to this listing...

Firstly, there has been a lot of attention to this... It started out as a bit of fun and has since gone totally crazy...

Thank you all for your tremendous support and extremely humorous additions to it: without each and every one of you, it would be nothing...

I was really enjoying the banter with everyone, and was posting the messages as fast as I could reply to them, and it seems that everyone was enjoying reading them... It seems eBay have a maxim of space per listing, some six pages...

People we reached that on Friday...

We need at least another fifty pages, maybe more... I have contacted Ebay asking if anything can be done and am awaiting a reply...

We have til Wednesday...
Fingers crossed...

Ok now to the immature few who think it big to place ridiculous bids...

This listing contains the vilification of two people...
And almost ½ a million people joining in with that...
Surely you can't be that stupid...
Obviously you can...

Now the bidding has reached the maximum and the bidding has stoped...
Congratulations you've just bought a broken SatNav for 10 Million quid...
What's the worst that will happen...
Hmmm let me think...
I'll take a guess that you won't actually be paying...
Bugger...
I never ever saw that coming, took me by surprise that did...
Oh My God I'm so upset...Boo hoo, boo hoo...

Yes you've stopped genuine people from placing a bid, maybe that was your intention all along...
To stop people enjoying themselves and me from making a few quid...
Well congratulations you succeeded...
Do you feel a big man now ?

I look at things this way...
Earlier today I was actually thinking this is wrong, I'm fit to make a few hundred quid from a SatNav sale that's probably only worth around £20-£30... I was actually feeling uncomfortable about it...
Karma dictates that what goes around comes around, and seeing as I was fit to make tenfold what the SatNav was worth I was thinking this is going to cost me big, and I was considering donating it to charity.
Then some Nigel with an iddie biddie weenie ikool string bean comes along and bungs on some fake bids, it reaches the maximum so all bids are off.
Karma paid in full... I'm left with nothing: well except my broken SatNav...

Seriously I don't give a damn about the money, there are more things in this world than simply making a profit...
To me the amount of happiness this listing has given is worth so much more than the alleged few hundred quid the SatNav might have raised.

You have done nothing...
I can still go out with friends, and have a proper drinking session and a curry...
I can sit back and read the thousands of messages that I've been sent from new friends worldwide and feel a wealth that money can never proffer...
You can sit alone, watching a blank screen, wishing you had friends, a pe*is, and a life...

When people from all around the world are taking the time to read something I wrote, or to forward it to their friends because they know it will make someone else happy, money becomes immaterial...
When someone takes the time to write, saying, 'they have just got back from a friend's son's funeral and my listing made them smile and feel better', that is worth so much more than money can buy...
That feeling, you d*ckless excuse for a human being, is something you will never know...

Almost ½ million people like what I have written...
Almost ½ million people think you're a complete waste of a life...

So what are you immature NIGEL's trying to prove...
Obviously you are so impressed by the impact this listing has had that you feel you have to do something to be involved in it...
Instead of joining in like the other ½ million viewers from around the world you have to do something that you think will impress everyone...
So you make a fake bid for the SatNav...
Yes that'll really impress everyone...
Does having your name at the top of the bids list really make you feel good about yourself...
Do you think that people will go 'OMG he's a legend'
For f**ks sake get a life, I've ticked the privacy box
No one knows who you are...
No one cares who you are... except you...and no one gives a rotting dogs bo***ck about you !

On this listing we all know what your problem is...
You're another Nigel with even smaller genitalia...
Perhaps you should seek counselling... you obviously have a major inferiority complex, probably caused by pe*is envy...
Wassa madda, diddums get buwweed at skoowwl ?
wuddunt da udda chwildwen pway widjjoo ?
Do you sit down to take a p**s like a woman ?
You are one sad f**king person: what a waste of a life !

By the way, that flappy empty bag of skin you have...
Well that's where the b*lls are meant to be...
They usually drop in the teenage years...
Don't worry, one day yours might too...

Anyway.. everyone, let's hope that eBay will give us some more pages for the questions and answers...

I'll continue answering them all - it'll take some time I have 1900+ unanswered in my inbox ...

It's a shame the bidding has been ruined by idiots, but in the words of Queen...
'The Show Must Go On'...

It is currently bid up to GBP 265.

...and 406,038 hits. This would have to be a record.

But I can see a potential problem for the seller. Suppose one or two idiots (or one with two fake accounts) decides to snipe bid with respectively 5 and 4 seconds to go, for, let's say, GBP 10,000,000 or GBP 100,000,000.

Don't eBay automatically charge the buyers bid amount % charge to the seller on close? I imagine that the fee eBay would automatically charge him on closure, (and perhaps his Credit Card) would be pretty painful, and it would take a minute or two, post heart attack, for him to sort out the issue and get his money back?

It might be a bit of fun for the seller, but it might take a helluva lot of time to sort out the mess. When things go feral on the net, you know not what you may reap.

And in the 20 minutes since I posted, the hits have increased from 406, 038 to 406,826. That's about 40 hits per minute.

And the high bid is now GBP270.

The banter is really classic and the language almost poetic and philosophic.
Really had a good laugh to the point of hurting my 3 previously fractured ribs on the right.

I would not suggest that £310 is exactly a sane bid,

Now up to 457,357 hits, but several bids seem to have been removed or withdrawn. Top bid is now GBP 275.

I wonder if Golden Palace will snipe this one. Or maybe its not 'odd' enough. :mrgreen:

(They're of course the online gaming company that paid how much, $25,000?, for the grilled cheese sandwich with the image of the Virgin Mary, and whatever other tat, oops "unique memorabilia" comes along.)

598,000 views and he has made the morning TV news here is Australia.

At the moment though he'll have to cancel a few bids again as its hit the 10 million mark.

Except I'd be tempted to actually take the 9.7 million bid from the multimillionaire with a feedback of 1700!

Serve him right and the seller can retire to the Bahamas! :mrgreen:

News in Australia????!!!!

When I first posted this here even I never thought this will reach so far... :lol:

Right now at 760 GBP

On 26-Sep-11 at 00:15:54 BST, seller added the following information:
Sunday Midnight

Yippee I'm a frikkin' multi-millionaire again
Bugger it's another fake....
Really...Why...

However, thanks to everyone who's been warning me about eBay's policies....
eBay will still charge commission on the sale and I'll have to claim to get it back

Yes I know: WHAT A CRAZY POLICY
An obvious fake bid of 10,000,000.00 means I've got to pay eBay shed loads until some point in the future when eBay say yes it was a fake !
In the interim they get the interest and I get Shafted...

NEVER EVER EVER GONNA HAPPEN!

If some Dog Egg wants to play silly buggers then so be it....

A simple solution....
Remove the registered email address from the PayPal account...
If it was the Primary Address simply add another, set that as the Primary Address, confirm it, then delete the old one...
If by some chance the winning bid is paid then it will simply register as payment unclaimed...
In which case simply re instate the original email address....and claim the money...


The email address that is linked to the PayPal account for this eBay auction has therefore been changed....
It is now residing in the email equivalent of heaven...and eBay cannot automatically take the money direct from my account...it no longer exists.
They can bill me, and I will counter their claim, battle it out to its logical resolution, but no monies get taken from my account...

If a genuine bidder wins the auction message me and we can talk Charities...

At the start of this roller-coaster I said:
All proceeds will go to taking me out on a bloody good night with copious amounts of alcahol, wine, women, and song...and if the price is right...maybe a curry to boot

I can no longer condone that statement...
So lets say £100 for the really good night out
The rest split between the two Charities I cited above Cancer Research and Heart Disease Research





For the record...
I'm Unemployed any money would be bloody helpful...
Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine any of this happening...
So donating most of the proceeds to Charity is the right thing to do...

I wouldn't be surprised if eBay yanked it due to "inappropriate language used in the listing" or "seller cancelled too many bids".

It would be entirely fitting the IQ of the monkeys on the typewriters in the eBay marketing dept to look at the fact that an item they have is getting global media attention, yet yank it.

Maybe the seller got fed up with the fake $10M bids and had worries about getting hit with a FVF on that.

Would be interesting to hear a follow-up to this story...though we might have to tune into a tabloid TV programme to get the info. :roll:
