Whats your favorite EBAY hookline????

Okay so Im on EBAY this weekend and see some serious issues with some sellers when it comes to the coins they are selling. *NOTE* Not all sellers are misleading with there titles.....but I'm sick of seeing 1913 Canadian Large Cents listed as "Scarce", or "Keydate". If any of you dabble in buying from EBAY (which I know you do). What is some of the funniest things you have seen listed/described in titles?

I don't cruise the bay as often anymore , but i remember one seller that tickled me . . he obviously didn't know about the blockbidder list or how to use it so what he would do was as a last word on the listing there would be a stern warning to various ebayers not to dare bid. He would rephrase it with different listings and it could get quite funny.He was also totally off the wall.

There is one particular dealer their now that describes everything as RARE GEM!!! regardless of whether it's graded EF40 or AU58. In past days I had actually looked at a couple of their auctions and the highest graded piece I saw was a common date 6d graded MS64. Now I know what their listings look like and I don't even bother, maybe I'll miss an actual RARE GEM!!! one day, but I doubt it.
