After seeing some rancid looking shoes being sold for £££. I have put my slippers up www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191872228008
If they sell I will do it full time lol.
I haven't made the listing as 'bad' as some I have seen as I cannot be bothered to set up a new account.

Tell him you would contact the mothership with instructions to collect him and bring him back to his home planet where he would be forced to become a dolphin-like creature for all eternity.

I think you should say 'put CBeebies on, drink wine and browse the Internet for new slippers.' Suspect that might not be what he is looking for though.

I am crying with laughter here. Op you so need to send muddlewitch's response

summerwinterton · 14/05/2016 22:26

eBay will remove the listing if reported as it is against the rules.

But as an aside, ending at lunchtime is not great and your postage is pricey, and untracked. Plus feedback and stars are not great either.

Oh man I clicked on the first link, now ebay keeps showing me rank pictures of old slippers! UrghEnvy

Quite a market for tights as well.

VulcanWoman · 15/05/2016 08:38

Crone yes.

They'll be a price to pay and not just by the buyer. It'll be like phone sex chat line but through emails, then maybe the seller sends their phone number to carry on through that. If both people are adults and not harming anyone else then fair enough I suppose. Doesn't sit well with me or most people I should imagine. Would this sort of thing just stop at old slippers and messages I wonder though.

Sandy I'm being haunted by old slippers now on Ebay because of clicking link to.

VulcanWoman · 15/05/2016 08:39

*too

lavendersun · 15/05/2016 08:41

Dear me, the tights are worse. How I wished I hadn't looked.

chanice · 18/05/2016 09:16

There's a whole weird world out there that I know nothing about ...

Ememem84 · 23/05/2016 17:59

I'm not sure whether to be a bit disturbed or whether to pull out some old shoes and list them...

Ememem84 · 23/05/2016 18:08

I've listed a pair of old shoes.

Used the words well worn. Trashed. Etc.

There were a paid of basic ballet pumps going for almost £300. Worth a try right...?!

Scone1nSixtySeconds · 25/05/2016 13:30

Well. Shock i have a pair of actually really and truly trashed shoes that I am still wearing as they are comfy and I am now quite tempted.

I think I would have to set up a second ebay account though as mine is generally used for buying lego...
