28 Apr 04 - 11:19 AM (#1173181) Subject: RE: BS: Lunacy on EBay From: WFDU - Ron Olesko Something is fishy here. Who would pay $25,000 for a dress? We aren't talking Vera Wang here. I think there is more to this story than meets the eye. Perhaps we are being punk'd. |

28 Apr 04 - 02:09 PM (#1173336) Subject: RE: BS: Lunacy on EBay From: katlaughing Well, now that he's had to reserve it to only pre-approved bidders, the top bid has dropped to just over $15,000...there are collectors out there who I think would be daft enough to go for it, just to say they won the *prize.* |

28 Apr 04 - 05:41 PM (#1173517) Subject: RE: BS: Lunacy on EBay From: SINSULL Or Kendall's llama... This sort of thing attracts bidders who are not serious. They just want to join in the fun and will not follow through on their bids. I am trying to remember what piece of space history bid into the millions on eBay. Anyone recall? |

28 Apr 04 - 07:12 PM (#1173586) Subject: RE: BS: Lunacy on EBay From: Jeri It's up to 5,871,798 hits now, and the bidding has ended. I see an E-Bay commercial in this guy's future. |

29 Apr 04 - 12:30 AM (#1173764) Subject: RE: BS: Lunacy on EBay From: LadyJean I have a friend who is a guy. He's married to a nice lady. He has a beard. He also does his nails. He favors purple eyeshadow. He likes to wear high heels, with dresses. He looks, to say the least, a little odd. I hope he doesn't see this Ebay ad, or he'll want to renew his wedding vows. (He was married in traditional Polish dress, which does look rather like palazzo pants. It was the only wedding I've ever been to where the groom outshone the bride.) |

29 Apr 04 - 01:12 PM (#1174187) Subject: RE: BS: Lunacy on EBay From: Stilly River Sage From his sense of humor, I gather the ex-wife feels glad to be out of that relationship. He's not mending any fences with this stunt, is he? This was his last remark, pretty funny: This one guy emailed me and said, "Hey, bud. What part of Texas do you live?" Uh... Well, sir, I am from Seattle. Uh, Seattle, Texas. Right next to AreYouAFreakingMoron, Texas, which is a hop, skip and jump from IWasEducatedByGeorgeBush, Texas. Thanks for asking, neighbor. Any time someone can take a swing at Bush and Texas, that's fine with me! SRS |
