The Part Timers Forum used to have an on-going thread about posts that were odd/funny/stooopid/contained weird CS answers ~ or just generally considered silly or outrageous. The OP of the thread was "the medic", so while the PT group is still kickin', I thought it would be fun to start another similar thread.
Readers, if you run across a post, comment, feedback, etc., that is "off the beaten path", please add it to this thread. I read the community almost every day and will contribute when something catches my eye. Just something to break up the boredom of listing, revising, answering questions, and working around the eBay listing glitches ~ or waiting for something to sell

Yup, savanna, it just amazes me that buyers can be so dense as to leave that kind of feedback when they purchased the widget knowing what the shipping charges were ~ no one twisted their arm to buy it ~ geesh!
...and speaking of silver jewelery, we are of like minds ~ at least you found what you were looking for even if you missed it ~ sorry about that! I have an affinity for David Yurman and John Hardy pieces but the search returns so many fakes that it is almost useless to even look as I keep getting "looks like" ~ really annoying and for the life of me I can't figure out why eBay doesn't put a stop to those listings as they are losing out on a potential sale ~ OK, down off my soapbox and will return you to regular programming!

Interesting title for a thread ~ the "title" box only has room for a certain number of words and on occasion, part of the title or word is cut off in mid stream making for an.....ahhh....completely different meaning:
Buyer wants replacement stone that fell out of bra
.....which should have read ~ Bracelet

Hidy, did you ever get that bra with the replacement stone? lol
A few years ago, someone mentioned on the fashion board a strange - photo listing.
There was a listing for a woman's top.
In the photo, way in the back - there was a guy standing next to a tree - without his pants on.
Butt shot.
We think her listing had been hacked. Just by looking at her sales, and other listings.
We all had a chuckle, but were happy it wasn't our listing.

Here's a good one from earlier this week.
Poster wonders why her listing was taken down. After all, she posted right in the item title that the item was a knock-off, she wasn't hiding the fact that it was counterfeit.

About this poster: Alan would say he's very passionate about this. I'd say he's a chip off the old byte.

Finally! A buyer that actually used a truthful reason for requesting a cancellation instead of the so often heard "my kid bought it"!
