An Ebay listing you don't see everyday...
« on: February 17, 2013, 06:01:20 PM »
Here's something that might just 'light up' our darkest hour. Remember, this is from a well known and reputable Ebay power seller, so it's to be taken very seriously ;)

The Best thing I have seen today!  I love the Q and A at the bottom of the listing.

I'm thinking this person needs professional help or they are the coolest/wittiest ebay seller out there for having satirical products for sale. :o  And to state the AFA is moving to control the world/universe, hmmmm!!!?

BTW: How did you come across such an obscure item for auction?  I love it.

funny thing is he probably could lower it to like 50-100 and might get someone to buy it just for laughs.

That's been around for several years now, I remember seeing this joke before--and this specific figure.

My memories exactly. One of my friends on Facebook actually posted the link not long ago which reminded me it was still out there, LOL.

My favorite part is also the Q and A: how he boasts with pride that his item was touched by the demi gods and how our civilization is heading towards AFA'ing everything from plants to persons, and that we'll all need to interact behind a plexiglass. I can easily relate to this guy's sense of humor and imagination  :)
