I've got my Canon camera advertised on Ebay, and today i had a someone from Lagos Niger press the buy it now button, then send me a message asking for my email address so they can pay me extra postage plus the buy it now amount straight into my paypal account :o
I've informed ebay before i do anything...I should have put UK buyers only, but i'm stotting :mad:
Anybody else had this happen.....:question:
 
it may be genuine..:rolleyes:

I heard lagos is quite photogenic this time of year...

there may well be a nice young gentleman sitting in his "self build" home in niger with broadband internet surfing ebay looking for a nice camera...sun shining down on some giraffes that lounge around in his back garden gently nibbling on the lush green grass............


then again, maybe not...;)
 
You've had too many late nights Rob :D:D
He also said he was looking for a double barrel shotgun, so i've gave him your email address....:D:D
 
yeh, I've just replied to him, ya can't beat being an arms dealer...

got myself two lovelly African brides in the deal, the ones with loads of rings round their necks...

I hope they can iron...:D
 
dont mention ivory to cod magnet (member on here) he was fishing off the ivory coast years ago must have been late 1940s or so he says, anyway as the story goes he was fishing away when suddenly a tribe of cannibals came out of the undergrowth and captured him, took him back to there village and decided he was going to be dinner:o
anyway the things they did to him before hand beggar belief, i know they involved aminal grease but thats all i know as he never went into detail when i asked ....just seemed to clench his buttocks tight and sweat:D
anyway nightfall came and cod magnet was stood in a big metal cooking pot full of water and various vegtables a fire was lit and he was put on a slow simmer, 20 minutes or so must have passed and the cannibal chief noticed that the cook kept hitting cod magnet over the head with a big wooden spoon, the chief walks up to the cook and says " hey umbongo why you hit him with spoon ?" cook says " hes wating all the carrots:D
 
When i had my boat on ebay i had a message from a bloke in Iceland message me saying he wanted to buy the boat to use as a survey boat and if i gave him my address he would send one of his agents round and draw up contracts etc needless to say i didn't respond lol
