Why can't domains sell like this?

[FMS]

Just had to include this, absolutely outrageous what people are selling on ebay. You have to see this guy in his ex-wifes wedding dress!! The bidding is out of control!!!


I have nothing to do with this auction, I just came across it and died laughing.

Funny link....

Just 1 question though... why were you looking for men in wedding dresses? :shy:


(only joking)

 

[stevo]

That guy is Funny!

 

[FMS]

hahahahaha!

I was posting on ebays discussion board when I noticed this thread. I opened the thread and read about this auction...and well the rest is history.

The crazy thing is that the guy states in his auction that he paid full retail $1200 for the dress brand new, and the auction ended at almost $4,000.

7,000,000 Hits!!!! He should put an affiliate banner on there, lol.

What a guy.

thanks for this monie

 

[MediaHound]

That has to be a record!
Seven million hits and TV, Radio shows, 5 new proposals, triple what he paid and more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

This guy's a celebrity!

Can't wait to see the website he said he was putting up!

I thought my friend Paul Hartunian ( http://www.prprofits.com - remember the guy who sold the Brooklyn Bridge?) was the publicity king - this guy may be competition!

"words sell" - whatelse would prove better. never seen a better sales copy than this.

[StockDoctor]

Thanks for the link. Got a laugh. The guy should have had a site link for that traffic.

And I thought I was good a writing marketing spin! What a crack up!

 

[MediaHound]

Ten point seven million!

 

[hotdog_pk]

that means that even whilst the bidding is over, he has gained over 3,000,000 hits.

i bet this guy regrets listing it for 5 days, and I bet his ex regrets leaving him with a ring

 

[Jack Gordon]

WOW... thanks for the laugh

 

[cyphix]

LOL... nice one!

 

[Cash Is King]

Wow! This was great.... Thanks for the laugh!

 

[skylight]

11 million hit. THIS MAD !!! LOL

 

[hotdog_pk]

cant wait to see his web site. although i wouldnt know where to find it.

do you think this guy purposely tried to make such a big thing out of it?

He says that the auction has been mentioned on TV and Radio... im in the UK, is this true?

 

[FMS]

TV and the news over here in California

There are even people selling the domain name :

ebayweddingdress.com

and so forth to make money off the deal.


Only in the good ole USA...

 

[MediaHound]

ebay will stand up on that domain name and take it down.
I once registered a name with the letters e-b-a-y and they were on me within hours.

 

[MediaHound]

Well maybe not take it down, but they will shoot off some emails to scare the people involved... you know the drill...
