I just wonder what they are going to do about the FVF that will be charged at the end of the auction? How would he/ she get around that? Or do they just expect to pay the FVF fees on it?

Well, if someone is dumb enough to bid on it, paying the FVF would be an easy and painless chore for the seller. Going after the deadbeat winner may be a little harder though ..

My question is, WHY are people bidding??? Some have excellent feedback, do they think they are getting the bowl too? Reserve of $60 has been met!!

Nana is really enjoying the attention this clip is getting!!! She was a little bothered toward the end when she discovered someone else tried to get in on the action.
I love the sense of humor that went into this site, and the daily postings. It had so much more credibility when John Edward entered the picture. Glad he's sending on Nana's messages. Thanks for sharing a wonderful piece of work. I needed that break in my day!!!!

WHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! It's GONE!!!! I was just in the site and read it before I posted my comment in here. I sent the link to many friends, now no one can see it. I saved it in my watch list so I could go back in and see how high the bidding went. After Alwaysfun said it was gone.......I went in to get it to send it to her/him, and it's not even in my watch list now!!! I've never had that happen before----something magically disappearing from my watch list. Well.......I sure enjoyed the humor of it. It was a paper clip left in a Fenton glass bowl that belonged to their great great great Grandma Nana......and Nana was contacting the via John Edward and telling about the afterlife and having dinner with presidents and kings, and Elvis. She told that love is the most important thing we have and we get wrapped up in materialism, etc. They just went on and on.......and everyday would add more information from Nana. Sorry you missed it......

I missed the first one .... but it sounds like what this seller is offering ... very strange. She's got a couple of weird auctions along this line...

Sorry - dont know how to make it a link here.
That is weird stuff. The seller must be full-blown crazy. Very offbeat humor and probably only appealing to a very small audience.
What if a seller could actually place daily a set of very funny additions to an auction and it grew to a very large audience? Would ebay outlaw or condone this tactic? The seller does try to at least quasi-mention the auction item in the updates.
