Funny ebay auction....

"SO CHILDREN LISTEN UP DO NOT DISRESPECT YPUR PARENTS YOUR FRIENDS OR YOURSELF BECAUSE US PARENTS ARE SMARTER THAN YOU AND WE WILL FIND OUT ABOUT ANY AND ALL THINGS YOU TRY TO HIDE."

LMAO!! 😀
 
Sounds like a total BS story dreamt up to up the auction hits and generate some traffic.

Who the hell stores (good) champagne in the fridge?
 
Wow that parent pwned their kid hardcore. Pretty smart if you ask me, few things would bother a kid more than losing their PS2...

WTF kind of response is that? Heck, were you some 13 year old kid who had their parents do this to you?
Grow up and realize that children need to be punished for thier bad actions.

Sounds 100% justified to me, assuming it is indeed real.

Since when do bugles have slides?

Maybe the tuning slide?

This part got me:
Saturday night I send my son & his friend to the skating rink like the rest of the parents. I was to pick him up from the skating rink after it ended. Well he went home, while I was not there with his friend and they invited someone I do not know to the house while WE were not there. I get home about 11:30 PM and find the house is wrecked. Beer was missing. Confronted son and friends about beer?Yes they had drank the beer. -$6.00 Strike one!

Nothing says "good parenting" like using the roller rink as a babysitter every Saturday night. 🙂
 
I'd be tempted to not buy from him. From his decision to share his life's story like this, I get a gut feel he's a drama queen who's difficult to deal with if things don't go perfectly.
 
I'm calling shenanigans on the description. I looked through some of the past auctions by that seller, no bugle. And as stated, bugles don't have slides. Trumpets and trombones do. Opening a bottle of champange with a corkscrew is a good way to hurt yourself.
 
hahaha that was funny. At the beginning i thought the father was kind of a monster but when you read the story you really conclude that this little guy is a... <INSERT OFFENSIVE WORD>HERE</INSERT OFFENSIVE WORD>
 
That?s right my 13 year old son drank a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne- 1995. PUT IT BACK IN THE FRIDGE WITH PART OF A CORK AND THE LITTLE METAL THING BACK ON TOP! -$120.00.

ROFL!

You're telling me you never went to a skating rink or the mall when you were 13 without your parent? I feel sorry for you.

My friends would always meet up at the rink and go skating on the weekend. Parents dropped us off and picked us up.


If it's a true story, I think the kid deserves it. My mom should start doing the same thing to my 15 yr old brother. Infact, my brother was just sentenced for underage drinking and simple assault because one of the parents pressed charges on him and his friends (her son was not included, conveniently) They were all rough housing while drinking.

Oh no?
Bugle
 
What would be funny would be for the kid to get his friends to all chip in and win the auction, then give him the PS2 back. 🙂 Serves the kid right though. I would have never thought to sell my kids stuff like that, but it should certainly welcome the kid to the real world.
