Here's another crazy eBay auction, this time they are auctioning snow. SNOW!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=208&item=3949905269&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

It's up to $55 with 3 days left! It just snowed this morning, better grab a handful.

Wait a second! That is no ordinary snow, that is snow from Texas. Snow from Texas is a collectors item.
 
Wow, some people really get excited about snow. Did you notice the retracted bids? I guess they bid, then checked their bank account balance. :smile:
 
Do you think they can return it when it arrives defective, as just a puddle of water?
 
The payment instructions say "Sale is final". It also says insurance is not available. Hopefully, he's shipping this overnight mail - 6 to 8 weeks for delivery probably wouldn't be very effective.

Of course, at a minimum, the buyer will get an ice chest. :approve:
 
Okay,so I put in my bid...but I don't know if I'm getting ripped off. No one else seems to be selling this.
 
I like the recent trend of people auctioning off pictures of things. They'll put up a picture of a nintendo system with games and say "Bid on this picture of a BRAND NEW NINTENDO DS with 10 GAMES!" and some poor chap will buy it for $150

Dammit, they stole my idea! I was going to make a tiny little snowman, keep it in the freezer and sell it on ebay in the name of charity sometime in summer
