#2115, "DONT LAUGH! I made an extra $400 this week selling my book"




          

So my sister and I were bored one day and decided to write a detailed ebook about what we do for extra money. Just for a fun project to do. Then we got a crazy idea to throw it on Ebay and see if we could sell a copy or two. Maybe make some gas money for the week. We made a funny ebay auction page with great exxagerations. Showed some of our friends and they said we were funny but that we probably wouldnt sell one copy.


We set up automatic email delivery of our ebook and we would wake up in the morning and have like an extra $30-$60 in our paypal account every morning. One day we sold $150. We were surprised. Well we ended up selling 46 copies this week at $10 each. Minus the ebay fees leaves us at about $400 or so.

I know you guys will probably give me crap, but oh well extra money is always welcomed with me. Not bad for literally doing NOTHING all week long. Auto delivery rocks!

Here is a link to our ended auctions this week:

I think we found a cool way to make even extra money every week now. lol. $400/wk can pay for some cool toys. hehe I love ebay!

so has anybody asked for a refund yet?
my guess is there method to making money is showing pics of the girl stripping, and saying if you do this you could make an assload of cash

That's cool. But you better hope that someone that buys your book doesn't go and re-sell it on ebay. Then you'll be out of business.

P.S. Why does your sister looks like one of the Olson twins?

Sorry, but I am laughing...

...at the people who send you money.

You go to great lengths to tell people that money will buy you happiness and get hot chicks with lots of "beauty and the geek" photos to back it up. Great message, page after page of dreams for sale.

P.T. Barnum knew your customers well.



Hey!

Maybe I should sell(hide) my product on ebay with your approach?

My ad would read...

"I guarantee this product will make it much easier for you to begin your "drive to success". You will now regain access to doors that maybe you thought would never open again. Chick's will no longer have to stand outside, begging to join you on your way to financial freedom. They'll be able to hop right in the passenger seat along side you for that rewarding trip."

Of course this next statement would be in dwarf text.
(Guarantee reqires that you currently have a full time job.)

I had someone buy an empty can of Welch's Strawberry soda from me for $17 on eBay after my roommate and I took a bunch of pictures of action figures endorsing it.

Then 3 years later apparently some parapalegic in Florida had saved the auction and asked me to send him a case of Welch's Strawberry soda. He paid the $2.50 for the case and the $40 shipping.

A fool and their money are easily parted...

Did I mention I have a 4g63 swap kit for sale?

If you make $100 an hour, why are you driving a 2GNT?
