It reminds me of the Korean guy who tried out for American Idol a few years back. He thought he could sing and he ends up selling a crap load of albums. Our ebay girl probably thought (and thinks) she took some of the best pics to show her wares. Who knows how she'll do. However, none of her other auctions have attracted any attention, but her latest pics have improved a bit.
Your coin is waaaaay too clear. Good try though. BTW all items for sale need to go into the proper forum.
That guy sang the national anthem at a Hornets game a couple of years ago and got booed really bad, but he really deserved it. I like his name though, I mean who wouldn't like a name like Hung?
That is the perfect Asian name, for a guy, of course! PS Our girl's auction is over $16, I may be out of the running, but good luck to those who are still going for it.
The end result of this auction is going to be a hoot. The girl is going to be left scratching her head wondering why this coin brought so much money. On the other hand, I wonder if the winning bidder will actually pay for the coin, or if it will just be a mere joke.
Joking or not, a bid is a bid and a thing of honor and I am sure the final high bidder will follow through. I would have gone as high as $15 for fun and even paid in the end if I had won. This is all great fun and I see no ill will in it towards our girl. Again, if it was me, and later brought to my attention the comedy of it, I would laugh right along with others. I mean I have walked before a judge before with my fly down and had it brought to my attention in front of 20 other attorneys. Sure it was embarrassing, but I could not deny it was funny just because i was the ONE. It was very funny. PS She has a bid on her Italian coin. I did her another favor and bid. I just bumped it from .99 to over $6.
I think the most important fact is being overlooked. Not only is this the worst example of ebay photography but also the ugliest man on ebay. I'm guessing it's a man.
It may be the worst example of ebay photography (in fact, it probably is), but what it is is very, very super ridiculously hilarious. PS I think our ebayer is a female (she is selling a wedding dress).
According to Numista, this is a nickel coin: http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces734.html With a current bid of $16.08, this is not bad.
No, maybe not, but what is bad is the picture. The picture is sooooooo bad, it is rather good - bordering on artistic.
