Some guy was selling his ex-wife's wedding dress and modelled it himself. :o

There are some all time classics like the wedding dress mentioned above but the site is getting saturated with quirky items at the moment. Like the machine that bored the Channel Tunnel, a half eaten banana (went for £1600- but had been nibbled by that GMTV sex siren Kate Garraway), Glastonbury mud or a bottle of water from the Diana memorial fountain- it went for £211.

My fav's though are the items sold by disgruntled ex partners. Or the used knickers that are sold with wording that says several times that they are new and unworn. But they are advertised as being shipped in a sealed plastic bag.

 ;D

Not odd, but one hell of a bargain. Was planning to buy a set of new golf clubs that were pretty shite to be fair for £250 from a retailer.

Instead bought off ebay

Maxfli Revolution Irons for £95, used but in good nick (rrp £249)
Callaway Big Bertha Steelhead Driver "MINT" for £39 (rrp £199) that i am very pleased with.
Maxfli Bag for £29 (rrp 59) NEW

Now i appreciate RRPs are misleading, but these are accurate.


I've just saved £350 odd!

It looks to me as if we have signed another 'average' player. I'll hold back my complete opinion until I see the lad play

There was an advert there a few days ago, unfortunately now taken down, from a guy in Newcastle who had had a messy falling out with his girlfriend and was selling  nude photos and videos of her!
