Ostensibly from eBaY: "Dumb and Poor? Here's a simple way to make MONEY!"

Anything really good lately?

I know - can't believe it. The 15 for shipping was too much by itself - let alone the auction price. More scary/stupid/fun from that page click the paranormal category and look at all the cursed/haunted/long lost powerful things are out there - and people are buying!

Here's one: "Precision Parts Machining in China: fast delivery". I'm not sure who that one is aimed at.

I'm excited about the Nigerian scam letter I got the other day... It was addressed to the Archon Dealers Room!

No, no, no, no. Don't these people read Dilbert? As Dogbert pointed out, the market you want to target is dumb and rich.
