Title: People will buy anything!! Post by: Jon MW on January 18, 2009, 12:56:23 AM Is it an urban myth that people will buy anything you put on ebay?
To test this theory I contacted one of the leading artists on blonde to create a deliberately bad picture, in MSN Messenger, to sell. This is the ebay page used to sell it. (http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1933/77/78/732861042/n732861042_2427131_99.jpg) Obviously I can't show you the non copy protected version - as that has now been sold. I'm sure you're disappointed but a deal's a deal. I'm awaiting feedback for this sale. It only took about 24 hours for it to sell, the price for the next one just has to go up.
