Worst e-Bay ad ever?
I spotted this and in my opinion this is the worst ad I have ever seen.
Did Rover ever make a 3cc diesel 827

and watch out for the "Speares" they can be a bit pointy
I just love the photo though, that's what does it for me, a perfect example of the e-bay school of photography if ever there was one.

I must admit since posting my last comment, I have felt a little guilty as the vendor possibly cant help bad spelling, but even ignoring the spelling, there isn't much right about the ad.
I am beginning to wonder if the e-bay school of photography could be immortalised in a thread of its own

Go for it - just make sure that the photos are saved to photobucket so that we don't lose them after 3 months.Gludenscrude wrote:I am beginning to wonder if the e-bay school of photography could be immortalised in a thread of its own

Wow. Yes, that's a poor ad.
Gludenscrude: Sure, he/she might not be able to help it being poorly spelt, but how difficult can it be to make sure it IS all spelt correctly?
I mean, nowadays, when money's tight for everybody; if you're trying to sell something, surely you'd try to make sure everything's in your favour..?
Maybe the vendor's just not that arsed. Got plenty money but no dictionary.....
(Proof reads post meticulously to avoid looking complete spoon. Regrets use of word 'meticulously'.)

Been away from the computer for an hour or so while the mrs catches up with farmville or something
Sorry to our worldwide audience, you should try living with the english language all the time I was out the other day and some girls were walking past me, one turned looked at me and said I had animal magnetism.. then one of the others said "well he repulsed at least half of us"
I have been trying to think where the e-bay school of photography thread would go and I cant think where on the site it should live, so I give up on that one.
