| Yeah, me neither. It's crazy. I know it went viral, made the news, etc., but still, it's a buggy. Does someone just want to say they own that buggy that was on the news, lol? Craziness. But hey, good for that seller! |

Re: Kids pram is selling on eBay for over £150,000
So the listing got attention from the funny description on you tube and made the news , that is why the cost is so high?
But normally this a regular priced item if you buy it new? |

I always wanted a phil and ted buggy for my kids.

They about 600 quid new and could never afford that each time i had my kids and wanted one |

DMShark!, wssmith!, you guys left the planet or what!, never had kids!, it is obvious to the rest of us who have read this 100% outstandingly brilliant piece of comedic illustration of the joys of 21st century living, the guy must be a TV scriptwriter or something along those lines, and if he is not, if he is wasting his life doing anything else then I sincerely hope that someone somewhere who employs people in that line of work signs him up immediately, that is one hell of a genius observation of the day to day humdrum of family life, he has taken it up to a whole new level and brightened the day up for almost everyone who reads what he has written in his ebay advert for a pushchair of all things!! |

| Oh, i totally agree! I laughed very hard at his writing. brilliant, for sure! That being said, I still don't understand why someone would pay £150,000 for that buggy. I mean, i appreciate the guy's comedy. His writing definitely brought a smile to my face, and I would perhaps buy his book if he had one, but I darn sure wouldn't drop £150,000 on that buggy just because he made me laugh. :) I don't know, maybe i'm missing something. wouldn't be the first time, ha. |

He talked about the terrible.condition and anyone who wants it for the 99p is welcone as long as they cone in the middle of the.night so the neighbours dont see him owning such a bad sofa. It was funny. If i can find it, il share the link :-) |

Re: Kids pram is selling on eBay for over £150,000
The listing is for payment in person , so they are not going through paypal |

Re: Kids pram is selling on eBay for over £150,000
Is this for real, seems like a complete joke? I would love to see if the winning bidder actually pays?, did you guys see the Lucozade bottle that sold for over 100k? |
| Gamefreak | 01-22-2015 03:25 AM |
Re: Kids pram is selling on eBay for over £150,000
how come they never have ebay follow up stories to these auctions to see if buyers actually pays for these crap!
on a side note eBay just cut 2400 jobs... |

They are appreciating his words and sentiment, and why not, will they pay, who cares I'm 100% sure the guy himself does'nt care, it's isnt about the money on this one! The amount bid may well increase, it's all about the words he used and how he used them, it was a joy to read and absolutely the best sign of the times any of us have read in a long long time |

Re: Kids pram is selling on eBay for over £150,000
did anyone notice the french hebdo editions the day before they went on sale in UK, bids of 6 figures - bet some were spoiler bids....
bet alot of the ones people queued up for at newsagents went straight on ebay too... |
Re: Kids pram is selling on eBay for over £150,000
No doubt oompa - I was checking up on those editions the day of release - wonder what the price is now... |
