A number of weeks ago I was approached by a fan (I have one) with a dilemma. She had cut her hair, and thus had a large amount of it left, which she didn't know what to do with. Naturally, since I know all and see all, she brought this problem to me. Using my omniscience, I instantly knew what she must do with this oddity. Whenever someone has something this bizzarre and rare that they want to get rid of those two magic syllables pop into my head: EBay.
Yes, EBay, the garage sale of the Internet. Need to sell something you think no one will ever buy? EBay is the place for you. Need to buy something you think no one will ever sell? Again, EBay is the place for you. From bikes to trains, to video games, its the biggest shit store there is.
Now, I have never actually sold anything on this technological flea market of wonder before, but I know the basics and more from some old article I read on X-Entertainment.com before Matt decided that he could get more hits if he only updated his site as often as I did mine. Thus, I did show mercy and help my reader, by reading other "Hair for sale ads" on EBay and finding out what sold the best. This basically consisted of telling her:
To be honest, then I pretty much stopped helping and watched anime for a while. What can I say, I'm lazy. But later, I did learn that she managed to sell it, and made quite a hefty profit for something that she originally hadn't thought worth anything. For all of yoru amusements I have also included a link to the auction, so you can all go see exactly what you didn't buy.
CLICK ON THIS EXCESSIVELY LONG LINK THAT IS ALL IN CAPS TO SEE THE HAIR AUCTION!
