Brilliant.
31 trolls surely. Ebay seller will be faced with a big invoice and probably have their ebay/paypal accounts suspended. Not such a clever dick idea really.
[i]so, it would appear there are 31 stupid people[/i]
Oh no.
Theres more..... Lots more.
😉
A nice one here as well [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/London-2012-Olympic-Torch-/190681414409?pt=UK_Sports_Memorabilia_ET&hash=item2c657f7b09 ]here[/url]
36 at £80,100.00!
I dont use ebay a great deal, but if they bid they buy? Thats pretty mucg the deal.
It clearly states "picture".
Am I missing something or is this utter madness.
I don't really get it - why is that ad an issue and why are people bidding such huge amounts??
Probably all his mates 'bidding' for a laugh ... or, people are massively more stupid than I give them credit for
I cant wait to see the final 30s bidding war!

Mmmm, I think he makes it pretty clear it's a picture, so in the extremely unlikely event (I hope) they're 'legit' bids I suspect the buyer will be getting a large invoice! Can always refuse it, and take the negative feedback if the seller really wanted to!
Oooh njee20, hmm negative feedback or £80k out of pocket 😯
I know which I would choose.
n***s (present bidder)* has no other bid history... either they're up for the joke, or are about to have a bad introduction to the Ebay world...
EDIT * I think...
EDIT Sorry - was just the 30 day summary.
I know which I would choose.
Well obviously, my point more that the seller (even if not the buyer) is presumably in it for a joke, and will likely just forget it, rather than actually leave negative feedback saying "he bid £80k for my fake item and didn't pay, the rotter".
njee I hadnt even thought of the feedback! Great point.
It has to be a wind up.
And I will take "rotter" any day of the week, not heard that for a long time.
That sale has gone but there are loads of others now!
I have a tear in my eye. I'm so effin PROUD to be

Although it's probably staged:- so no bike or lorry in sight.
aww!! it appears to be removed,[url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LONDON-2012-OLYMPIC-TORCH-SIGNED-BEN-AINSLIE-photo-/150821574659?pt=UK_Sports_Memorabilia_ET&hash=item231daa9803#ht_500wt_1361 ] however this one is still available [/url]
I don't know who Ben Ainslie is, and I can only imagine the offers that have been made (such as "go **** yourself")
