Ebay idiot brings beef with me, and gets burned...... (funny)

[Giblets]

This imbecile was selling a Chevrolet handbook or something, advertised as 1988. Upon viewing it, I could tell from the picture of a 4th Gen Camaro on the front that he clearly meant 1998, and not 1988 as advertised.

Being the good samaritan and all, I decided to point this out by way of a polite note. At some stage following my original note, somebody clearly updated and corrected it. He then challenged my observation and the following banter ensued.......

I've got one thanks buddy, and it's not fiscally dependent on selling bric-a-fcukin-brac on ebay for pennies.



Best of luck with the sale. Treat the wife to a Wimpy burger with the profits.

I know my responses seemed heavy, but to suggest I would wind up random sellers as I have no life seemed like a slap in the face to me, and I generally don't back down from such horseplay!

[Giblets]

He's probably the sort of nimrod who insists on having the last word (I know I am!), so I expect this to go on for a while.

I'll keep you updated!

Just some jumped up p***k.

We should get one of our Nigerian friends who love Western Union so much to buy it from him...

Being the reasonable kind of guy I am, I've since reached out to this poor soul and offered him a chance to apologise without further insult being launched.

We'll see what happens......

First real cock I've encountered on ebay and I'm not even dealing with him!

Very sad ain't it?

You try and help people out and they treat you like sh!t for it.



It's like when you're driving and you let people out of a junction - the polite thing to do would be to give a quick "cheers, Mate" hand up, but no.  That rarely happens.

All this leads to is people being less inclined to help out their fellow human beings.

As I say.

Sad.
