Strangest thing you've ever seen in an eBay listing

So, I was surfing around yesterday and came across a Ted Williams card where the seller included "DECEASED". I just thought that was kinda bizarre and was wondering how many other oddities others may have seen in listings. Gotta say, I have never seen "deceased" before.

Sometimes a seller adds his to an autograph of someone who has not signed in a while...……
But Williams ???

Yeah, that's pretty bizarre to include on a non-auto'd item.
Every Time I look for a vintage set this particular seller has everything priced at 2 to 3 times the amount anyone else would sell it for. Many of his items are there for months.
The seller legendaryairness is listing BIN items only lasting a day, then the same cards come up as new listings each day. Really messing with my saved searches, I may have to exclude them from my searches.. overpriced BINs as most are.
Other weird seller practices out there?
That deceased thing is weird...

Just came across an odd seller. So, he has 5 cards up that I'm interested in, all 5 are BIN/MO. I figure I can get the right price, but he doesn't specify his shipping cost for multiple sales...so I ask...here's his reponse...
Shipping is $4 for the 1st card, add $1 for the 2nd, add $1 for the 3rd, then we start over again, max package is 3 cards per shipment.
So, I guess if I want the cards, I'm committing to $11 to ship 5 cards...CRAZY!!
