Talk:Unusual eBay listings

Comment

This article should have some way to distinguish between hoax posts and actual unusual sales. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.177.147.38 (talk) 22:22, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Thanks...

Thanks for creating this; I'm happy to see this stuff moved out of the eBay article. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 23:51, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Being burried above Marilyn Monroe's crypt

This must surely be one of the most unusual

But personally I can't be bothered to edit the page.

I once sold a CPU on eBay, which I knew was blown up, and made it clear the CPU was dead.

"Unusual" by what standard?

What's the basic inclusion criterion for this article? What does "unusual" mean? Who decides what is and is not "unusual"? The whole premise of this article seems like a bit of a crock to me.--ukexpat (talk) 16:52, 17 September 2014 (UTC)

Looking at a comment above, it seems that so far, it's a dumping ground for that which mustn't go into eBay.  ;) — Smuckola (Email) (Talk) 03:12, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
