classic ebay listings

Post by **redline** » 10 Sep 2007 01:31 pm

It may just be me, but after reading the listing
(especially the bits about reserve / buy it now/ posting and payment )

I found the questions and answers some of the funniest I had ever seen on ebay
( and yes, I do know the guy whos selling the ped )

My spelling can be crap but text speak takes ages sto translate into english. I have no broblems with the use of common abriviations but evry work sortened or spelt wrong is hard work.

Does that class me as an old fart?

No mate, just someone who is sensible and has intelligence. No worries about the occasional bad spelling, we all do it but text speak makes no sense on a computer.

jst rmv t bll hsng wth a rcht spnnr? No thanks!

Good for swearing tho: fk txt spk nd fk ppl wh spk t

Edit* How exactly does one speak txt? It's an entirely written phenomenon, though some of the neanderthals round our way are getting quite close

I did only mean our end, like the £130 cavalier that died on the way home from picking it up, or the 3-cyl sierra, or the £75 Mazda 121 that lasted 10 min before mum demanded dad returned it etc, etc, etc, the only blot on the copybook your end was a metro/100! Your choice of cars cant be faulted (340, 340, LT, Golf)
