Hello all. This is not a joke. I am trying to sell everything in our home so we can make rent and so that my wife and nineteen month old daughter do not end up on the streets. Any amount of money is going to help us to get out of this hole. My wife just got laid off from her job.

Yet more proof stupidity knows no bounds...:beamup

2 ways this can stop - 1. No one bids, which will never happen, you can't get the whole world to do one thing - 2. eBay pulls crap like this off and bans the user no matter how good their selling/buying is.

But, won't ever happen. As long as eBay gets their share, ALMOST anything goes. Sad, really, what eBay has degraded to.

Hey,If someone is stupid enough to buy this it doesn't bother me.Why ban a power seller?If someone is willing to buy this stuff,it doesn't affect anyone else.

I guess I'm just one of those folks that can see the wrong on both sides. I've never been a fan of folks being taken advantage of.

I thought eBay was created for a different reason. Some people always seem to HAVE to find some way to make a good thing a pitiful joke.

One lady auctioned off the naming of her baby! That Golden Palace Casino I think won the bid. I think she was supposed to name the baby that, or something like it. Are you kidding me?

Nothing is sacred anymore. I don't think a no-holds barred world is a good thing. Looking back at some of the idiocy of the last decade or so, that's surely where we're headed.

At times like this the saying that sticks in my head is this: "Just because you have a RIGHT to do a thing, doesn't make it the RIGHT THING to do."

Commonsensical. :)
