I am an evil man

I am.

I sold a 2 x CDr set on ebay today (NON-SISTERS RELATED) for £32.12. I was gracious enough to include artwork and a jewel case. It's not my fault if some people have more money than sense.

I then got thinking .....

So I emailed the 2nd and 3rd highest bidders explaining it was just CDrs and were they still interested in buying it for their highest (failed) bid price?

So, one hour after sending my emails I have now sold six shiny silver things, six bits of paper and three bits of plastic for £88.14. And they've all paid me by paypal which will pay for the leather jacket I'm now going to buy on ebay. :D

I am an evil, evil man. :von:

PS: @ My Sis who I've just pmd this to ... I had to just share with the group, didn't I? :wink: :kiss:

Yes, Brother Johnny, confess to the masses, but it will not redeem you. You'll burn in ebay-hell eternally. :von:

Yep, but I really don't care 'cause I'll be wearing my leather jacket I just won for £36. :wink:

Excuse me!

I told you the plan in advance but did you listen? No. You wanted to go off dancing in the mud with goths and dodgy darklings. And getting your picture taken.

Pffft to you too. :wink:

I agree roughly with your statements. I did have the looks. And ... hmm :innocent:

But you did make lots of people happy by wading through all that mud and dodgy darklings. :notworthy:

i don't blame you in the slightest for turning a quick buck -if the markets there then so what? they'll only give it to some other party who possibly won't even give them anything of quality.

obviously selling sisters stuff acquired from weeding is morally out-of-order (unless we perhaps set up some sort of bribery fund to encourage old' von-but-not-forgotten into the studio.....hell let's go milli-vanilli and pay the smurphs to record the new album! :lol: )

You are just styling yourself as evil but in fact you were terribly good and honest. You have provided exactly what you said you would.

Sorry to disabuse you, but then I have an inkling that's what you want.

You are absolved. Go forth and sin no more.

I have an inkling abuse is what he wants. *cough*

When did I give you the power to absolve? :von: I say he gets 50 black marks in my Holy Book...and then perhaps we can discuss absolution. :twisted:
