You have got to be kidding me. Am I missing something here?

Browsing around Ebay and came across this:

I must be missing something too! I know its been a long day, but I am confused.

Too bad ther isn't a picture! lol

Are you missing something?

The humor in it maybe?

*toddling off to make some matching earrings out of paperclips*

I have this picture in my mind of Bert from Sesame Street (of Ernie and Bert fame) busily typing in a bid!

I had a colleague who made a skirt entirely out of paperclips. She was fun!

I should call her and tell her there is a market for this sort of thing on ebay.

ROTFLMAO!!!

LOL! It looks like there is more than 1 sucker born every minute... there have been 52 bids on this and it's currently up over $400 (U.S.).

Some people will bid on ANYTHING!!!

 

[Shelle&Dave]

The number of bids is what surprised me the most! And if you look at the bid history there are quite a few different people that have placed bids. It's totally crazy.

The thing is. considering some of the incredibly outrageous auctions that have come up, it's just not funny or clever enough to even warrant that much interest or the $400 bid.

Now, as mentioned above, if a picture of Bert wearing said necklace appeared, then it might be a worth a peek and chuckle.

Why is there no picture?

When I was a kid, my Grandmother bought me paperclip and some contact paper. I'd string the paperclip together and cover each one with contact paper to make a necklace, bracelet, earrings, whatever.... I'm wondering if this is the same thing and why of why is it so much money?!!!
