Would you sell your used shoes knowing they would be used for "alternative" purposes

In this austere financial climate would you sell manky old worn shoes/boots to raise funds to buy lovely new clothes? I am very tempted after reading this thread www.mumsnet.com/Talk/ebay/754896-Selling-old-shoes-to-perverts-on-Ebay?pg=4 scroll down to last page as even though the original thread is a few years old some of the postings are only a few days ago. What do you all think and what would you buy with your ill gotten gains? I would be heading to Brora and blowing the lot on cashmere wristwarmers and liberty knickers www.brora.co.uk/Product/Product.aspx?WebShopCodeStr=A2&WebSegmentCodeStr=S2&WebCategoryCodeStr=CX&StyleCodeStr=LPK122 now I am not sure who the pervert is!)

Sorry, in my excitement at finding a way to fund my shopping habit my ability to spell alternative or deeply perverted has been lost.

I would sell them but I wouldn't deliberately go on about how worn they were. I would just describe them as they are.

Yes, why not? There can't be any harm it it.

Unless the pervert tries to track you down and you have to call in the Met. Case is still ongoing so no more details.

Wouldn't bother me tbh. I wouldn't make a point of going on about my feet in the product description but if the buyer happened to be someone who paid ££ to wank over my used shoes who I am to grumble.
