eBay and Unfortunate Wardrobe Choices
posted by Joseph Liu
Thanks to Dan, Kaimi & Nate for inviting me to guest blog this week. I feel a bit like I’ve been tossed the keys to a fancy sports car (one with lots of cool gadgets!), and so I alternate between a desire to floor it and a fear of driving into a telephone pole.
On that note, let me start with a weighty post on how eBay is making the world more efficient by freeing up articles of clothing that would otherwise remain consigned to the backs of closets everywhere. See, for example, the following auction for “DKNY Men’s Leather Pants I Unfortunately Own“:
You are bidding on a mistake.
We all make mistakes. We date the wrong people for too long. We chew gum with our mouths open. We say inappropriate things in front of grandma.
And we buy leather pants.
