... When modeling a second hand coat on eBay.

I was very innocently browsing second hand Parkas (yes, quite apt I realise) today and in one listing the woman is quite clearly flashing. I mean she's wearing a bra. And leggings. But it was a bit Shock when I clicked and got a bit of eyefull. prude

Aibu to think it's eww and to wish people wouldn't do this.

It was a nice coat too

Maybe tali but is there some kind of code? Otherwise an innocent unsuspecting buying may order a coat and then receive some seedy message. Maybe there is a code word.

hiddenhome2 · 05/01/2016 18:33

Ha, ha, she's a saucy lass and no mistake Grin

(nice coat)

Arsenicinthesugarbowl · 05/01/2016 18:33

How strange! What does it mean? She's booby in all her coat pictures as well as the bra ones (obviously). I've seen used shoes and tights in eBay as a"thing" but maybe she just likes showing her boobs to strangers innocently looking for coats!!!Grin

TooSassy · 05/01/2016 18:34

She's not just selling a coat.....

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 05/01/2016 18:35

Maybe, Paul. Who knows but it happens. There was a link on here ages ago of a woman selling cheap primark vest tops for a fiver. She was posing face and all, vest and knickers, nothing else.

I always wear nothing but a frilly bra under my parka, don't you?

Elllicam · 05/01/2016 18:37

That was surprising, warm coat, warm coat, lining, BOOBS. Huh.

There's a thing called Reflectoporn where people put shiny objects up for sale so they can flash you

Holy fucking christ Shock

Eebahgum · 05/01/2016 18:46

If you check out sellers other items, she's selling a couple more coats, all of which she flashes bras in, as well as a number of bras (all modelled). Maybe she's trying to sell multiple items in one listing?

limitedperiodonly · 05/01/2016 18:46

When I discovered it I kept searching more images. It was like Where's Willy?

dontcallmethatyoucunt · 05/01/2016 18:46

A top may distract you from the quality of the parka. Clearly.

Had her listing had more or less views as a result of a bit of norkage?

There's your answer, basic marketing.

Not saying it's right, but it's not easy to get a listing to stand out.

Shakey15000 · 05/01/2016 18:49

That's it! Reflectoporn. Knew it was a thing Grin

Most bizarre.

Clearly these are standing out. Grin

'Local pickup' ha ha ha

FluffyPersian · 05/01/2016 18:55

My sister told me that apparently you can buy sex on Tinder Confused. It's something to do with 'roses' and the amount of roses in the profile blurb is how much someone charges? Confused.

Brightnorthernlights · 05/01/2016 19:03

Bizarre....just looked through it all. I feel like a voyeur!

SavoyCabbage · 05/01/2016 19:07

Well I loved it! Selling a purple fleece with your bra out. Juxtaposition. Her most pricey item is the boots. Not a bra in sight. I'm so confused by her business model.

Boosiehs · 05/01/2016 19:10

Urgh!!!!

Get that woman a better fitting bra! Actually perhaps that is why she is selling them all?

ForalltheSaints · 05/01/2016 19:16

Still no bids. Maybe there is some sense in this world.
