im the kind of guy to keep an open mind about things and, in
the case of literature, i would not really care about the
condition of a book so long as it was readable but when you
get one that has shit in between the pages and some of the
pages are stuck together to the point which the pages rip
apart upon turning them its a different story. i would think
it does not matter and i am sure in some part of the world
the condition of all literature is either nonexistant or
poor but this is the second time i have received a fucking
book from ebay someone might as well have used as toilet
paper wiping the shit from their crusty ass

im not being truthful. its not as bad as im making it seem,
but, my current mood is leaning me to exxagerate. but, i'm
not really exxagerating because 2 pages have torn in this
book because something like chocolate or caramel was
sticking the pages together. thats like if youre going to
sell a CD to someone over ebay and the CD has a dagger
through it

I've bought a few books using eBay and they've always been
great.

This is what happens when you buy second hand jazz mags.

Just follow the example and also use the book as toilet
paper, it's how the author of the book intended.

i dis-enjoy certain ebay things ...erm,,,like most stuff
about the freaking thing, freaking economical rape from the
lovely friendly invisible non contactable ebay squad ..the
'PAY 'does f)k all to earn your respect' PAL rapist mate you
hate. the dirty muther smegs that sell you fake shite then
threaten and give you bad feedback even if you pay in full
on time and do nothing wrong ...then theres the books you
can buy on ebay.. i tell ya....i wouldn't and i hope you
don't either ....a blood bath, i tell you! ...in the ancient
old days you would fight off dogs for food and kill rabid
humans that are trying to steal your family, territory and
crops....today we have Ebay.. and electronic money in the
form of paycnut.

bless the wicked and enslave the good and innocent.

billions of us ...our food supply cut off..and distributed
under control .work work work build the extream bunkers and
space ships for the american/britsh nazi party.

hey look.... simpsons on tv !!! woo hooo!!! .

I got banned from ebay for selling nearly new books.
We bought them for about 50p each in a charity shop and
carefully removed pages before selling them.

Oh how we laughed, it almost matches selling crack to
pregnant women.

laughter. second paragraph ,...hahaha awesome.

at least people were happy ....thats the best thing.

why remove pages? oh wait!!! not the last ones in a novel?

office on time and got ran over?? or had a heart attack
running with all the computers on his back?.. we just dont
know what happened to him ?? the poor man ..he was sooo kind
selling them cheap.

i think we should let him off now he's very very probably
dead.

could be man, or he could be trapped in a well and almost
dead or he could be sitting on a beech on the canary islands
reading a book he bought off ebay with torn pages and sticky
brown substances which no one can identify...bad karma for
ripping those poor mofos

i just got a book from ebay today, used books are nicer than
new ones and sometimes they say things like 'to pete love
auntie jolene xmas 1973' inside the front cover
