Most Rediculous eBay Auction of The Week
« on: November 17, 2005, 10:46:18 PM »
Mind you, the auction states "used, but in good condition."

I can hear it now...

I'm going to sell you a piranha that has been resurfaced so much there are no labels remaining AND a rhino pro with such a terrible track that it appears as if I've thrown it in the parking lot for the last 50 games.  On top of that, I will include a filthy white gym bag...all for the low price of $24.99 plus $50 shipping!


Check out this one:

LOL, come on, cut the guy some slack, he's trying to get some cash to upgrade his lightly used, slightly outdated equipment
Maybe someone is looking to pick up some lawn ornaments or boat anchors.
Anyone else have an alternate use for these two fine pieces of bowling eqipment?

A guy in my area "slices" balls into thin layers and makes clocks out of them.  I guess you can get 1-2 clocks per ball depending on the size of the core.  Sort of a neat idea....  cool to see some of the different core shapes.  Maybe these two balls could go to a "better place."  Of course, already being drilled may present a problem...   lol

Wow - that auction really lowers the bar on the meaning of "good condition"...
I've got a couple of bowling balls out in the garden that must be "excellent"!

What a crappy idea. Who would've thought something from bowling equipment could actually look that crappy.
