So I put up a Hugo Boss shirt on eBay because it's been sitting in my closet for ages. I set the "buy it now" price at $150 because the shirt is like new and I paid like $250. Anyways, I get the following message from some bitter eBay member;

This member has a question for you.

Do not respond to the sender if this message requests that you complete the transaction outside of eBay. This type of offer is against eBay policy, may be fraudulent, and is not covered by buyer protection programs. Learn More.

Dear member,

What The Fuck Is This?? How Dare You!!!! $150 For A Shirt! My Childern Wear Cloth From Good Amercian Shops And We Never Pay $150 For A Bloody Shirt. We Are In Deep Reccission And You Think Us Amercians Want $150 From You Canada's!! Take Your Chic Chic Shirt And Shove It Or Use It To Wipe Your Ass When You Get Off Your Gold Tiolet!!!!!

I feel like forwarding this to eBay but I'm going to let it go. Talk about fucked up people.

[SkinnyPupp]

Well that was a pretty retarded way to put it, but I agree that $150 for a shirt is pretty stupid.

[penner2k]

Well that was a pretty retarded way to put it, but I agree that $150 for a shirt is pretty stupid.

I wonder if she messages every person selling a car over $75k on Ebay.

[SkinnyPupp]

I just think it's hilarious that this person took their time to write up a message to one of the millions of random people selling shit on ebay, so she could share her opinion :lol

[hal0g0dv2]

I wonder if she messages every person selling a car over $75k on Ebay.

she does i get it like 5 times a day

[liu13]

lol, nice share

give him a response of equal stupidity

[Harvey Specter]

Well $150 isn't that much for a dress shirt. I can't imagine what this person messages to the people selling CA shirts for well over $200, lol.

[hotong]

haha thats fucked

why does your ad say you bought it last month if its been "sitting in your closet for ages"?

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Hugo-Boss-Slim-Fit-Dress-Shirt-Size-15-38_W0QQitemZ220481838440QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Men_ s_Dress_Shirts?hash=item3355bddd68&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

You'll be purchasing a used, 110% authentic Hugo Boss slim fit dress shirt.

I purchased this shirt from the Hugo Boss store in San Francisco last month and only tried it on. The shirt is too tight for me so I have to sell it.

[Harvey Specter]

It's been in my closet for 2 months now.

[spoon.ek9]

some people have way too much time on their hands.

i remember back in the days of ICQ. some random australian read my description wrong and msg'd me because she was all offended by something that i wrote which had absolutely nothing to do with what she was interpreting it as.

i msg'd her back telling her how much of a retard she was and she apologized.

try your luck with this retard? haha.

[pawdregry4g]

reply with a copy of her message with corrected spelling and punctuation

[sexyaccord]

reply with a copy of her message with corrected spelling and punctuation

haha

[!Aznboi128]

take 1 dollar cash?
:p

but that's pretty random messaging you for something so simple

[SuperSlowSS]

can't you guys sense the sarcasm in his message? or maybe he just that dumb.
but still made me laugh.

[Jermyzy]

you should e-mail her back saying it's BECAUSE of the recession that you have to resort to selling the clothes off your back!

[twitchyzero]

I just think it's hilarious that this person took their time to write up a message to one of the millions of random people selling shit on ebay, so she could share her opinion :lol
i get these occasionally from CL

[TOPEC]

you canada's !1111!!!!!11!!!!1!!1!1

[1exotic]

This is awesome, just shows how retarded americans are.

[CanadaGoose]

HOW DARE YUO CANADA'S AND YOUR CHIC CHIC GOLD TOILETS!!!!!!!

[winson604]

Not surprised. When I worked at eBay I was dealing with ebay.com Powersellers specifically and of course ebay.com are mostly Americans. Anyways I mostly answered their emails and even had to make calls to them telling them I removed their listings and my god they are fucking dumb. Reading their emails were even funnier as the stupidity and horrible grammar was out of this world. I mean my grammar isn't by any means good but you really would think at times you were reading an email written by somebody in grade school.

[danizer]

You'll be purchasing a used, 110% authentic Hugo Boss slim fit dress shirt.


110%???? so the dress shirt is a fake x)?

i like how the american Spelled Every Word Of The Sentence With A Capital Letter...Lol

[Harvey Specter]

Funny thing is I use to put "100% authentic" for my auctions with designer clothing and I would always get messages asking "is this item authentic?" but the messages have stopped since I put 110%, lol.

[yvrnycracer]

you should repost the item for 500 bucks and message the person back saying "reposted with new price" :D

[StaxBundlez]

what about $495.00 dollars for jeans....

yup

feel bad for that idiot...

[maxxxboost]

Yeah....How Dare You!!!
*finger pointing*

Respond back with $150 OBO?

[!oHenry]

You should give them a special price of 149.95 because their email was so convincing.

[achiam]

what about $495.00 dollars for jeans....

yup

feel bad for that idiot...

I was driving to Seattle with 4 girls 2 weeks ago and nearly swerved when they told me their Rock & Republic jeans cost $500. I berated them on wasting money when they worked at $14/hr jobs, and they seemed possessed as they defended how comfortable they were.
I dunno about you guys, but my $100 jeans are pretty damned comfortable.

[!Tigger]

R&R jeans are shit. i knew someone who had a pair, and they ripped out of nowhere

My $16 Kirkland jeans are plenty comfy,how the f@ck much do you make per hour .;)

[JHatta]

Well that was a pretty retarded way to put it, but I agree that $150 for a shirt is pretty stupid.

if you think 150 dollars is pretty stupid for a hugo boss shirt, then you best be shopping at wal-mart.

good dress shirts start at 4 bills.

[InvisibleSoul]

What's the difference between a $50 dress shirt and a $400 dress shirt?

[MG1]

What's the difference between a $50 dress shirt and a $400 dress shirt?

The label?
It's not made in China?
It release pheromones?

just guessing........


I'm too sexy for my shirt!

Ever slide an RR jeans off a hot chick before going down on her? Very nice. Well worth the money. It's like peeling a very ripe banana. So sexy...........

[SkinnyPupp]

$400 fine Italian shirt != $250 (or $150 used) factory made shirt from Malaysia.

[AzNightmare]

Bah, designers's stuff. Although I do agree with the first half of that person's opinion, it has nothing to do with Canada. And I wouldn't pay $150 for a shirt.

Unless it cleans itself, dries itself, tear proof, fire proof, turns into a Japanese Gundam robot, etc. It's just a shirt with a "HUGO BOSS" printed on it. Nothing special, not worth the price tag. I laugh at people that buy designers' stuff thinking it makes a difference.

Anyway, you should have replied back and said, "If you buy the shirt, you'll throw in the gold toilet for half price."


What's the difference between a $50 dress shirt and a $400 dress shirt?

oh, the differences are there. But usually subtle, and not worth $350 more.

[Harvey Specter]

The Designer vs. non designer debate has been discussed before, there's a thread in the fashion section. It's hard to say what is and what isn't a waste of money. Some people in this world and even on this forum wear $5,000+ watches while others wear $100 watches and think the $100 watch is the same quality as the $5,000+ watch. Other people think a $30,000 Honda is the same quality as a $50,000 BMW or Mercedes. Everyone has their opinion.

Vehicles I can understand, because the specs are laid out. One performs better than another. Watches... well personally I'm not a watch person. So I would say it would be a waste to buy a Rolex. But at least from what I hear, they are indestructible, so perhaps paying more to get that would make it worthwhile comapred to a generic watch. But clothing has to be the most ridiculous thing...

That being said, if someone has the dough, why not? I definately would try it out if I had lots of money. Anyway, not gonna shit on your thread, since this is beating a dead horse.

But seriously, you should respond and tell him the golden toilet is on sale too :D. Can't wait to see if he/she replies to that one and what he/she would say.

[Harvey Specter]

Let's just say the whole "designer cloth" subject is very debatable subject which can go on forever.

[jbsali]

$250 for shirt? shit.. the buttons better have been gold plated. id never pay that, but thats just me

[simsimi1004]

you guys gonna be wearing 30 dollar shirts at ur wedding?

[jbsali]

Fuck no! i thought this was like a "work shirt/casual" kind of thing

[Euro7r]

$150 shirt, someone's balling, haha.

[Harvey Specter]

Where's Marco when you need him.

[mr_piggy]

So there are losers on ebay and most RS'ers buy their clothes from Walmart. What's new? :D

[Vansterdam]

lol

wow. i'm never going to see a banana ever the same again :thumbsup:

[thumper]

you guys gonna be wearing 30 dollar shirts at ur wedding?

nah. prolly gonna be that frilly powdered blue number that came with the rental.

[ilvtofu]

Jah where do you get the chic chic shirts?

[SkinnyPupp]

Where's Marco when you need him.
when the fuck does anyone ever need Marco? :lol (except to laugh at when he brags about how much money he spends on clothes) :lol

[silk]

somtimes you just need to spend a little more on clothing for their quality and brand..
im sure the cost of material and machine labour is way less than retail price.. but thats business...

say if you are getting an Air Intake and the pipe is just piece of metal probabaly worth 2 dollar and 10 bucks to bend into form but they retail it over 60 dollar +

[GLOW]

nah. prolly gonna be that frilly powdered blue number that came with the rental.

something like this? :D

[SumAznGuy]

$150 shirt, someone's balling, haha.

Correction, it is a $250 shirt that he is selling for $150.

In all honestly, some people are paying $200 for an Ed Hardy T-shirt. And don't tell me those T-shirts got really popular in Canada first before the US.

Shit, I was watching WWE and saw one of the wrestlers wrestle in Ed Hardy Jeans. Hulk Hogan was wearing Ed Hardy T's in his Hogan knows best reality shows.

[Chuck Norris]

Let me be the first to say I'm glad someone else's R&R jeans ripped for no reason. Mine ripped after 2 years and I'm not hard on my clothes. I ripped mine putting them on. I guess I stepped on the inside of them when I pulled up to hard and *RRIIIPPPPP*

Anyways I think a lot of people go through that stage in life. I remember when I was making $14 an hour ($14 dollar baller) and I would spend $400 on a shirt or $300 on a pair of jeans and wouldn't even flinch.

I would do this all the time and try and act baller even though I obviously was not. $14 an hour seems pretty good when you're 18 or whatever but it's not baller at all. Most people's first decent job makes them feel good and they buy a bunch of overpriced shit. Was the quality of the shirts I got okay? They were okay but not superior to shirts 1/10th the price.

Anyway, it was a phase that most younger people go through. I'm not OLD now but getting closer to 30 and I still have some expensive clothes but I'm not stupid with the cash I make because you grow out of it (most people do).

I will admit, my suits and shoes are pricey but I also make a shit load more than $14 an hour. While my clothes are expensive, most of them are for work and I do not have a lot of clothes.

Just remember, next time you see someone with a Gucci bag and they're waiting in line to take the bus, remember where their priorities are.

[Chuck Norris]

Where's Marco when you need him.

I feel like giving anal sex, where is he?

[thumper]

something like this? :D

[Jeffield]

actually 100 - 250 for a shirt is not that bad

its very common, like my shirts i buy on cliffedge for the limited BAPE stuff i pay

http://www.cliffedge.co.jp/a-bathing-ape/tee/33-82-200-002608-050.html

174$ for that plus shipping and tax some clothing I pay for is about that price range

Its sort of stupid, but some people spend money on their food, or what ever

I just like spending it on my clothing

[G]

150$ is nothing.... I bet thats the costs of hyde's undies

[jnesss]

please send them the link to your original ad and say there's a better deal there lol.

Exactly.. This debate is worst than ebay seller sending you a message..
Get over it if you dont want to buy an expensive shirt...

[!Yaminashi]

Well, clearly the person DOES want it, but is too cheap to fork out the money so theyre trying to reason with the seller saying its too expensive

But I agree, too expensive for you, why bother

[Jeffield]

This is true

In the end its all a debate for what is

you're basically paying for the brand name

Is It Really Necessary For The Guy To Type Like This? I Mean, It Is Pretty Annoying To Hit The Shift Key So Often You Know.

and well, in his message he states that his children wears "CLOTH" from stores... so I guess maybe they have a huge toga sale in the states somewhere that makes them not want to buy anything from us "Canada's"?

Wow. really, you should send this picture to him

Haha I worked at Top Buyer for ebay. People on there are 100% retarded when it comes to the most trivial of things. They need to find better ways of spending their time. I ended up playing Fieldrunners on my iTouch while they rambled on about feedback they received.

Just remember, next time you see someone with a Gucci bag and they're waiting in line to take the bus, remember where their priorities are.

That's naive, if the person's place of work was just a bus or skytrain away from their home, why wouldn't they choose public transportation? Plus you're saving the environment and saving money.

I drive a car to work everyday, it maybe our priorities but it might not be for other people.

[pintoBC_3sgte]
