Mystery Box! - 10-01-06

So I've been looking at mystery boxes on ebay, and mystery envelopes. For the most part, the people making money on this (that is, not the ones actually selling a box and comes with a "free gift") seem to be doin alright. However that's if they sell it. So I was wondering, who here has actually bought a box? Do you know of anyone who has? There experience with it, how much they got screwed over (if they did), whatever.

This topic I have a fair amount of interest in at the moment.

i'm gonna take a wild stab and say a 'mystery box' on ebay will never contain a winning lottery ticket, pam anderson or a new car. save your cash or if you have some insatiable need to give it away, i'll give you my paypal link.

Well said. Surely its just another one of those scam type things that you obviously dont get anything.. Like bidding for a bucket of water or bidding for fresh air

and then sell it as a mystery box on the bay.

I would, but that sounds kinda funky.

It reminds me of my fave movie....."Nothing, I have nothing to sell....."

So then, no one here has bought or plans to buy a mystery box or knows anyone who has ever bought one. I understand.

No, but my friend in high school put his soul up for bid.

That was terrible. You didn't even make it sound like she was mad!

Cleavlend: Hey Peter. Where's your boat?
Lois, leaning over Peter: WE didn't TAKE the boat. We took the MYSTERY BOX INSTEAD. HOP IN!

Peter: Hey! I've done dumber things! Remember that time I could have had that boat?
(A Boats a boat! But a Mystery box could be anything! It could even be a boat!)
Peter: And we all learned a valuable lesson.
