The Things They Sell On EBay: Ghost Photos

Oh. Well... words fail me. How... how gullible can people be???

Obviously, far more gullible than I'd imagined.

Sometimes the temptation to take advantage is just overwhelming. :D
 
I'm really starting to think I should put my "ghost" picture up for sale. I wasn't sure you could sell photos like this. Why wouldn't anyone who wanted it just save the image to their machine?

My Ghost Pic
 
Whoever paid that winning bid actually shouldn't be allowed in charge of money. It's for the best that there are many people who will take their money from them.

I honestly think we should start selling out photos. We don't have to say they are photos of ghosts, merely invent an exciting backstory about a spoky house or some such crap.

I'm still shaking my head in disbelief. At least the people who bought the Virgin Mary cheese sandwich did it for publicity.
 
I note User ID kept private.If Id paid that amount of money Id wanna keep my ID secret as well.Wonder if he paid? I emailed the seller so Ill wait for my reply...;)

I think the picture with the cat kind of looks like a fairy.

I think b154 looks positively demonic. The glowing red eye. And the demon has a bit of a pot belly. I think that photo would scare the bejeesus enough out of people that they would pay thousands to possess it.
 
Never mind about ghost photos - with people this gullible the sky's the limit.



Roll up, roll up!

I present for the people of e-bay a new technology known (up until now!) only unto the ancients.

Now you too can control the demon of fire!

Summon this elemental force at will as though you were a demigod!

Ashles' FIRESTICKS are available on a limited basis using technology discovered from Atlantis and aliens!

Starting bids $500!

[Insert story about journey of discovery, blah blah, India/Nepal, blah, blah, wizened old man. blah, blah, NASA can't understand, blah, blah, tested by Schwartz, blah, blah etc.]
 
The first three links are so scary they've crashed!!! How do you do them Ashles?;)
 
The beads are from ancient Chinese mysticism. Their energy was first written of by Ming the Merciless in BC 18,504 and have been studied by top Russian scientists.

The Russian scientists agree that this is definitely magic and they are top international physicists, indeed the best physicists who ever lived. And I saw a documentary about it once.
 
Trying to scan the picture was a battle. A nearly brand new scanner, which has always worked fine, just would not work for anything. Everything I tried just prompted an error message.

A problem with a scanner? That is unusual and creepy... :rolleyes:

The day after that, the power supply on the computer tower went out completely.

Wow! The most commonly failing component on most computers... failed?

my monitor goes out about once a day. Sometimes it takes several minutes of trying different things to get it to work again.

It's called "power-save." Wiggle the mouse.

Strange smells come from computer room.

Mine too! :o

Since the photo has been in the glove box of the van, a cold draft seems to blow from there.

I've always had cold draft blowing from the glove compartment in my van. I wonder if there's a photo in there... we did buy it used... hmm...

September 5, 1922. I married my wife September 5, 2001, when she was 22 years old.

Wow! I married my wife on September 5, 1997, when I was 22 years old!


Maybe I can just sell my amazingly coinci... er... spiritual story on eBay? Obviously I was lead to this thread because I must have some connection with this ghost too!


EDIT: Wait! The coinci... er.. CONNECTION is deeper than I realized! I just read in Azrael 5's other thread that the picture owner has a son named Ethan.... and so do I!

Well then, ... it MUST be true!
 
Even my kid's heard of these things and he never watches the news. I'm cooking tacos the other night, and he yells 'hey! there's an angel on my tortilla!'

I take a look and agree. Actually I think it looks like a Holy Spirit bird :wink: but that's close enough.
Kopji: 'Hey let's get the photo on e-bay.'

So, while I'm uploading the picture from my camera I hear this crunching sound behind me...

A fortune lost!

They could, but they would only have a copy. I think its important that what you buy has actually been involved somehow with the event. This latest picture came from a camera that was actually at the haunted site and was actually manipulated by the ghost. In the buyers mind this imparts special spiritual significance to the actual object, in this case, the picture.
