Default Drunken Ebay purchases LOL

Last night I had had a few too many Shandy's & woke up this morning to find an email for a paypal payment for $695.19

I appear to have bought a Nitrous Express Kit.

What a knob head !

It gets worse

I have just had a flick through my ebay account & I appear to have added this to my watch list !
http://cgi.ebay.com/Scooby-Doo-Full-...item1c14607205

Best check my ebay sniper to make sure I have not set up a bid for the fucking thing.

Anybody else made any alchohol fueled ebay purchases ?

Good effort!

Mate won a 2CV once after a 20 drunken minute discussion we had about entering the 24 hour 2CV race.

In hindsight it wasn't the greatest idea, he didn't have it but did refund the bloke his listing fees

mate and i won a hot air balloon one nite. Fuck knows what shit we had been chatting lol. Didnt even realise until the guy mailed me few days later asking how i was gonna collect said item. I had actually won a efi manifold a few days before hand and thought this balloon guy was manifold guy so i replied back saying oh just go down post office and send it 2nd class, then i got proper confused when he mailed back saying are u having a fucking laugh. Well no i thought, i just want my manifold for cossie management that im doing. Luckily once i realised and mailed the guy explaining, he found the funny side to it. Me and my mates still piss ourselves whenever it comes up in convo lmao.

Only once and bought an astra estate 1.4 8valve for £103 with tax and mot.lost Internet connection for a week and wrote off the idea of buying it til the guy phoned me one day to ask when I was picking it up as I'd emailed him my number!!turned up and it was a proper dog,the damage on the rear quarter had been repaired by literally welding a huge bit of steel over the damage,not even cleaned the welds up or painted!!!I was going to walk but took it for a test drive and it went like fuck,I couldn't get traction until third it was ficking mental!!

paid up and drove it home,had 130 down the motorway and drove it for two months without a care in the world,it was rapid as fuck and would blow away 2.0l focii etc,I had no idea what had been done although it turned out later to be ex police so may have had a 2.0l conversion or something as the cops like a play!!!
