| I am soooo tempted
Look at this link <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1845974454" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1845974454</a>
I am so tempted to tell this moron seller that his product is crap and I could buy it for half the price at any reputable establishment.
Now I agree, if anyone is silly enough to buy it, then they deserve what they get. Still, there are intelligent people who would not know that they are being taken.

There's no difference between a smart person and a stupid person getting scammed if neither of them do their research. | |

| I agree with you there, 355. Still, it annoys me that people will go out of their way to take the fools of this world. Why can't they simply be honest and sell the epee for what its worth and not mislead people with language and gimmicks.

| d'art:
'a fool and his money are soon parted'
'you will never get rich counting anothers' money'
'there's a sucker born every minute'
-these expressions come down through the ages for a reason, a very good reason. and here we are looking at the reason, but it's okay d'art, you see, in the vastness of the universe money has very little intrinsic value. right now i like the euro-dollar.....we should invest invest invest.
speaking of investments, i'm not liking the looks of wheat in nebraska. how does everyone feel about soybeans for a change? i thought about tea, soy, cassava, taro as new and additional crops for the united states, and get away from the wheat wheat wheat syndrome.

| Here's what you need to do. Make a .gif file that is exactly 48*48 pixels. You then need to upload it to a server. If you make one, just pm me about my email address and I'll happily get it up for you.
What I did was took a picture of myself, scanned it, then cut out only my head. I then used a program called Macromedia Fireworks to make my head shot exactly 48*48.
BTW, no I am not currently using my custom Avatar. I think that I prefer the portrait of Charles II.

You should have used Charles the 1st, he did end up as just a head  | |
