A man has 20 envelopes. He is eBaying them one by one. One of the envelopes contains a piece of paper with "Wii" written on it. If you get that envelope he will send you a Wii.

He won't just lie about it and have your money, he WILL send you a Wii. A man's eBay word is the strongest promise in the world.


Wii eBay ENVELOPE RAPE

Once again we find ourselves sobbing over the depravity of mankind. And it isn't even lunch time.

I've got 20 envelopes here and in one is written 'sex'. If you bid for my envelopes i'll open them and if you have the winning one i will have sex for you.

£1.29 per envelope.

Make that "with" and not "for" and you've got a deal.

Surely it's illegal to hold raffles on eBay?

This deal only applies in the U.S.

That's disappointing :(

I hope the other 19 envelopes have a bit of paper with 'suckerzzzz' written on it inside.

the guy claims this in the auction listing:

"E-BAY RULES: This is not a gamble, raffle, sweepstakes, charity, giveaway, lottery or a game of chance or skill. "

when it obviously is several of those.

ebay probably won't pull it, though - the only auctions they ever pull are funny harmless novelty ones, and individual sellers trying to flog old-school bootleg nes games purely as a historical curio. scam artists and large-scale pirates always get away with it.

and actually a semi-amusing thing to do would be to bid on and win all 20 of his auctions, since obviously none of them are going to get over $5 or so (people aren't that stupid...are they?) then even if he was intending to not send a wii to anyone, he's be forced to send one out just to avoid revealing himself as a scammer.

well that or he'd just take the money and fuck off anyway.

I notice he's running and number 2 and a number 3, but not a number 1. Unless that's already been sold and the winner has (wisely) not left feedback yet.

Shame. I'd have loved to buy all 20 and get my Wii on.

Number one appears to have sold for $355.
Blogger maxp said...
If i had money to spunk i would love to buy all 20 under different names and sue him when all 20 came back as 'unlucky'.
Blogger John said...
And if there really is a winning one, I would be very surprised if it isn't number 20. Otherwise if someone had already won he couldn't claim that any more.

OI, dude above! I'M the real John, bitch.
Anyways... Yeah, I think you have to be stupdendously gullible to go for this, so why does one of them have a bid?
Blogger Jawatron said...
So he bought his own number 1 for $355. I'll sell him my number 2 for £10.
Blogger mobiletone said...

YOU HAVE TO READ CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE WENT THROUGH A LAWYER WITH THIS LISTING STOP GETTING INTO A JEALOUS RAGE AND LEARN TO LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE!!! AND READ MORE CAREFULLY!

Amazing. I can look like a complete cunt in my front room without having to risk not winning a Wii.

The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing.

-haha-

Just an "get-rich-quick" idea: why you don't buy tons of wii in countries where there is plenty of stock (ie: here, in france) and resell it with an acceptable but substantial profit in those stupid-but-rich countries like UK ?
