I was searching for some chintz china and got this auction. I'm not sure if this seller was mentioned here before or if I grabbed all the words. Looks like he has a good part of the Webster dictionary hidden in his ad.

Editing to add a warning, don't click on the auction if you have a slow computer or connection because it will hang it up really bad.

WHOOPS! Sorry, I broke the board here so I fixed it. To view all the words you will have to look at the source code. They obviously take up this whole board.

They must still be working on it.

They are only to the P's.

He goes from A to Z and then just keeps going with items and prices, etc. It looks like he has every item on the internet in that code.

I have a fast connection and the auction page took a long time to load.

Check out the ID, I do not think for one minute that this is a newbie seller.
Most likely this is someone who got the boot before and now has resurfaced with a new ID.

This is a travesty. Trai is right. No newbie knows enough to try this kind of sophisticated spamming. If ever someone deserved a NARU...
Reamond...hung my cable, too. So I switched to a PC with DSL and it just about killed it. Maybe the good news here is bidders will get frustrated and move on.

We'll have to check on this once in a while to see if it's still running.


Also, another one for the ebay record books. The most views on any auction without any bids. Currently 847 views.

Can't get into this one. I keep freezing up then having to try and back out. I can't believe that eBay doesn't have a backup system for this kind of auction. Well in light of everything else I guess I can believe it

It hung up my cable modem too. I tried to right click to view source and it wouldn't let me - I wonder if he added that code to it too.
