A cup for $1,000+ dollars?
No way, THE dunkin' donuts cup?!
So it's just a Dunkin' Donuts cup? :|
That is no ordinary cup.
What's so special about it?
It is the goddamn Dunkin' Donuts cup!
Castle Pokemetroid, you copied Richter Belmont's thread from RSU, you even kept the same title. Weird.
i still don't get it... :S
actually i'm wondering about this myself, as i myself was there not long ago, and got one myself. Netami, please explain!
Dunkin' Donuts cups hold Dunkin' Donuts coffee, guys.
>.>
<.<
...so?
So coffee can be really hot.
OF COURSE! I UNDERSTAND NOW!!! D: *is enlightened*
:tmyk
But wouldn't this one hold cold beverages, given the thin nature of the plastic?
That is a gross and disturbing way of viewing the Dunkin' Donuts cup, and it does not surprise me that it came out of the mind of a woman.
Ha. I am correct. It was an iced coffee. :p
Truthiness dictates that I shouldn't buy into your factual evidence. Besides, who asks for Splenda in an iced coffee?
crazy people and my sister-in-law.
That is doing the Dunkin' Donuts cup a vast, immeasurable injustice. I hope you chastise her next time you see her.
aye, aye, sir.
Since when did Netami become Stephen Colbert?
Do I need to put you on notice? ~_^

People sell single paper clips on e-bay.
In one case someone sold a cd with only an empty "New Folder" on it.
Things like that will occur as long as people keep being amused by such stuff and bid on it.

Noo!
No harming the Amber! :<
I'm sorry. I meant a different sister-in-law. I only have four of them.
I think you should harm all of them, just to be fair.
And safe.

QuoteSomeone is promoting Dunkin Donuts by getting attention from the entire web geekdom by this gimmick. Pretty slick.
Viral marketing FTW?

Piffle. I've got ...uh... at least 7. I lose count.
Out of only two marriages, even. So chances are, there'll be more on the way. Sooner or later.

Never underestimate the power of paperclips. (http://www.oneredpaperclip.blogspot.com/)
That's not what I meant, but it's awesome nontheless. :laugh

I second that notion
That link in the first post of this thread confirms my belief that the world is full of retards.
Actually, it's more like it just proves that are people who will buy anything, especially on eBay.
I've seen air guitars put up for sale there. (Think about it...)

Exactly, people who'll buy anything, like air guitars and a picture of seaweed for $2000 really do not have a single brain cell between their ears. :B
Something about this line horrifies me X.x
"Anything that comes with it is a BONUS GIFT From Me to You :-D"
"
people buy souls, dirty underwear, haunted paintings, god-in-a-jar, empty boxes, boxes filled with packing peanuts....
I remember seeing a listing where someone was selling a jar of black goop and claiming it was pure evil...
must try that...
Ohh wait maybe in honor of jack we could sell jars of sin, jars filled with a thick viscous liquid... envey would be green, wrath red, lust a milky white, and the others... hmmm
maybe sloth could be yellow with chunks in it...
Pure evil is almost always portrayed as black, sinister and amorphous... if I was pure evil, I'd be pink, fluffy, sweet and cuddly. Who would suspect something like that thanks to perpetuation of stereotype.
It wouldn't sell on EBay though...
'course it would.
-everything- sells on ebay. :-)
Of course, but the question is whether it gets paid for or not.
This was a classic:

The pictures are gone now, but it was an early-mid '70s domestic tape recorder, worth about £25 on the second-hand market. It went for just shy of $8000 USD for no satisfactorily explained reason.
There appear to have been two shill bidders to drive up the price - what's weird (apart from the fact the two accounts were created in the same minute) was that they were from Japan, as was the winning bidder. The most realistic theory is that it was some kind of money-laundering scheme.

HP calculators tend to go for much, much more than their value on eBay, mostly because people still buy them to be used, not as collectibles.
I could sell locks of Ambers hair but she wouldnt like that cause people would try to clone her or she have a fit... :P

True, but if you just wanted to play back or record tapes you'd probably get a late 80s Tascam or a late 90s Revox. Christ, you could buy two brand-new Otari 5050s for that kind of money.
Once, I saw someone tried to sell a peanut that was chewed and spat up.
I wonder if that sold . . .
It's the holy grail I tell you!
I saw a purse made from a female roos uterus once O.o;
Holy crap-- people are totally making money here. Why am I not doing this? I've gotta find something cheap yet hypnotic to sell to sad rich schmucks.
A miniature CD?
Hmm... yes... good value on the shiny scale.
