Retards on ebay
 
Ok.

So I've been looking all week for some tickets to a comedian this weekend in the nearby city. He's doing 3 nights and they've been sold out for a year(!).

I spot 3 good seats for the Saturday, with a buy it now of £150. This is good value, the face value is £30 but seats like this have been going for £60+ish a pop.

The seller has a feedback of 7 with a percentage of 80%. Some of it doesn't look too good. But that mainly seems to be stuff he's attempted to buy himself, not sales. Without sounding too prejudiced, this seller also lives in an area where people aren't too trustworthy at all. For the UK people reading, he's a scouser!

Anyway, I send a question yesterday off my dad's account asking to confirm the seat numbers and block. I figure if I pick them up (it's about half an hour away), I can't get scammed.

No reply today to that question. I sign up new account in my name (not wanting to f up my dad's feedback), and am about to Buy It Now when I notice some tit has put in the minimum bid for £50. Ok, so it's a proper auction now.

I win it quite comfortably for £83. Bargain!

Seller now emails me saying :
'can you give us 100 squid for them mate'

WTF?

I check dad's email account and there's also a helpful reply (sent after the auction ended) stating :

'they are floor seats row j seats 4 to nine there the 6 i have but i am keepin four off them'

Firstly, this does not confirm the block number. Secondly, 6 - 3 is not 4.

Sigh. I know this is boring but I needed to vent. Will keep you posted. Fkin scousers.

Personally I enjoy 'wanker'...but scouser has a nice sound to it...

So I looked up scouser and apparently it's someone from liverpool?

Is the girl from liverpool in one of my classes (in the US) going to like it when I call her a scouser tomorrow? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

A scouser is someone who lives in and around Liverpool. It was not originally a derogatory term. But now, hahahah.

WTF?

I meant '6 minus 3 is not 4'.

The guy says 'they are floor seats row j seats 4 to nine there the 6 i have but i am keepin four off them'

So he has seats 456789. He is keeping 6789. So that leaves 45. That is not three seats, as the auction advertised.

Not scouse. 11.5 thankful miles away from being so.

I like how he said you are a scouse 'and a retard, too' and you responded by saying "I'm not a scouse." Way to play.

When I opened this thread I expected it to be about people auctioning off the mentally handicapped. I am quite disappointed.

80% positive feedback on 7 is a giant red flag. I'm not sure what you expected.

Two scousers turn up at the Pearly Gates.

St Peter says "sorry, we do let in all sorts these days, but God says no scousers, ever!"

One says, "Oh, please, we've led good lives, can't you go and ask him for us?"

St Peter decides it wouldn't hurt, and goes and tells God.

God gets angry, and says, "how many times do I have to tell you, no scousers, ever! Get rid of them!"


St Peter goes off, comes back five minutes later, saying "They're gone!"

God says, "The Scousers?"

St Peter says, "No! The Pearly Gates!"
