Hilarious description of OEM seat on eBay

Wow, I stumbled across this 955i OEM seat on eBay and laughed aloud while reading the description.

"British Racing Green is also the best looking color so I’m sure there have been several swimsuit models who have straddled this thing while I was enjoying a cappuccino at the local coffee shop." Priceless!

10/10 for honesty.
9/10 for humour
2/10 for good copy writing.
No wonder the bid's still at $9.99

I thought the same thing, Doodledog. Maybe he just wanted to crack himself up and experiment with a brutally honest ad to see if anyone bids. Very funny ad.

Yeah, but he's provided a pretty good laugh for his friends, and a whole bunch of total strangers for what's basically next to nothing (the eBay listing fee). Way to go...

"I have never pooped on this seat…" - Good to know. This is the question I keep asking myself when I bid on something on ebay: "Hmmmm...Did somebody poop on this, or is it OK?"
