Funny eBay Question

Also known as "you can't make this stuff up." But I think that title might have been used a time or two before. image

I'm selling a 71 Topps Bradshaw RC. Question I receive today is:

"Just inquiring - my son has just started an intrest in collecting football cards. What makes this card such a hottie?"

I responded about it being his rookie card and about him being a HOF, Superbowl champion, yada, yada, yada. In my mind, though, I'm thinking: those fiery, red-hot borders are sure get your son going. To top it off, Terry has that incredibly sexy ass chin that goes in for miles. Incredibly, this card captures both in addition to his dreamy whispy blonde hair.

I used to love Adlibs as a kid, and this question reminded me of an adlib sentence.

For all the weird/crazy questions you get on eBay, this one definitely made me laugh.

    I got one from a 0 feedback Ebayer with no listings nor any bids on anything;

    Ebayer: "Have you sent me your payment yet?"

    I responded: "What payment?"

    Ebayer: "Nevermind. I'm new to Ebay."

    The dude had no bidding or sales history. 0 feedback. I had never contacted, nor been contacted by him until his "Where's mah money?" email.

    Maybe he didn't realize that you're supposed to actually SELL something before someone sends you money?

    I think it was just a scammer trying to save the time and hassle of normal rip-offs and just cut to the chase. He was actually trying to save you the hassle of shipping something to him before he scammed you. This is the new "seller friendly" way of screwing you.
