Off Topic;

Elland Road, the home of Leeds United, is up for grabs at eBay just days after club chairman Gerald Krasner put the 100-year-old ground up for sale.

Officially, Krasner is seeking a 25-year sale and lease agreement in a bid to cut the club's debts of more than ?50m.

But the ground has now been put up for sale on eBay by a joker called krasnersbringandbuy, describing it as ?1 USED football stadium.. close to local shops and motorways to Manchester and the South of England?.

?Extensive car parking space. Nice view. Reluctant sale due to 1 careless owner. Must rent back to Leeds United but will consider a ground share with Bradford AFC,? the description adds.

With less than eight left on sale at eBay, Elland Road has already attracted 21 bids so far, with the top bid standing at ?10,000,000.00. The buyer ?must collect, unless their local posty has a forklift?.

Leeds United were relegated from the Premier League last season and has been forced to sell most of its highly-paid big name stars including Alan Smith, James Milner, Paul Robinson and Mark Viduka.

Carsberg bottle from WW2 with the Nazi symbol all over it. Apparently given only to SS officers. Worth sticking on eBay?

Partially game related (hardware side), but thought this was funny enough
to post after watching people outbid me all week blatantly paying silly money
for almost everything...

Buy these at Maplin
Thermaltake Active Memory Kit In Stock 7.99

Then sell them to morons on Ebay for thrice, what a markup:

Madness

Doesn't look like a one-off either as other copies have sold for ?80+

[gossi the dog]

You'd expect the price on PM to rise even further when the sequel gets released.

Wow, didn't know it was going for those kind of prices.
Still got a sealed copy that i've not got round to playing. Tempted to stick it up for sale but would actually like to play it sometime.

[fifty?ballz]

1. It's not from ebay customer support. Last time I checked, ebay customer support sends emails from ebay.

2. The grammars all wrong, it's not written very professionaly.

[Ginger Tosser]

Ebay and i'd guess any associated company would always display your ebay name. If its not there its not from ebay, avoid like a ****ty stick.

[DjSatansfury]
