Best or Worst Online Drunk Buy

Best-36” TUCR precision rod.

Worst-A pile of slab raps that I have snagged one fish in 2 years.

I don’t buy anything other than more cocktails when I’m drunk.

This should qualify as the best and worst.

Best and worst at same time

Oh Lord, ginsu knives?? case of trojans for two bucks? and I am talking about the party pack of 144.
And, the other night I learned about Gussy O in one of my spam mails, but she didnt have a price.

Thee absolute worst one was when I was thirteen years old about a hunnert years ago, I think they called them sea monkeys? I was at that age ( between Christopher Robin and the hundred acre woods and Debby does Dallas ) I wasnt sure if I was going to see something straight out of national geographic or a danged cartoon but I spent three dollars to see a sea show!!

ROBBED AGAIN!!

The best thing recently was a PS-22 Panoptix transducer…. I hemmed and hawed for few years then finally ordered one when I was drunk

The worst?

Can’t pick out anything in particular to call the worst, but I do have 6 incorrect spark plugs and a wrong fuel filter sitting on the work bench. The devil is in the details when ordering parts

You can’t make everyone happy, you’re not a taco.

Actually ordered a JT Custom Shiver Stick the other night. Will have to see how that turns out. Hoping for good turnout based on reviews

That there is a thing of beauty. Well done, sir.

I had someone that was I hope drunk and they posted they were looking for some crankbaits. I posted that I had a dozen or so. I told them what I wanted for them. They countered. I said sure. They said they would come and get them the next day with cash and never showed up. They posted a few other WTB items over time and I just thought yeah right. Does that count? I tried to sell to a drunk.

Damn that hurts a little bit. I meant to stop by but had gotten busy with work, and being out of town. Then was lost down the line. I had just purchased a ice house from a guy yesterday from my wtb add. And a vexilar and many other things when I posted wtb. Sorry I never made it for the clackin raps. I know where I stand in your mind. I guess I’ll remember that.i might have been drunk and posted that but I still successfully bought a good amount of clackin raps from other guys on here. I have a solid buzz right now as well if that matters

Besides saving money from not buying from MOJO, my worst purchase was bamboo pillows off a infomercial late 1 night. Ordered 4 or 6 and it was a few 100 bucks. I hated those pillows, not even my dog would sleep on them.

Lol. Offered to buy a rod last summer. Never could actually follow up on his word. I gave up and just bought a new one. For the amount of time he spends on here you’d think he had time.

Time is not on my side. I still have the rod in my basement lol. Appologize it’s hard to match schedules when it’s something midweek. Didn’t know you guys had such hard feelings over not making a deal. Last guy that I couldn’t meet I mailed him my crankbaits and told him it was a gift. I’ve delivered stuff I’ve sold and traveled 2 hours to meet another guy. If you ever need something and we can’t meet I leave it on my front steps and trust the person who is picking up will be honest and leave payment. Some people’s time is free and some are busier then most.

LOL! Googling SUS is definitely SUS.

BTW, I like that casing

Back in the early days of eBay, I used to get instant messages from a friend in the UK (6 hours ahead of us, time zone wise). He’d come home from the pub on Friday nights a bit sloshed and then hit his computer to check on his eBay auctions.

eBay was something of a WonderLand for the Brits back then. They could buy anything they wanted at super-cheap USA prices, pay with a strong pound, and most of the time have it shipped over without attracting the attention of UK customs. So no tax and duty.

One night a couple of us were IM’ing and in pops Malcolm fresh from the pub and he was obviously 3 sheets to the wind. He was watching a couple of high-end fly reels and bidding like a drunken, umm, auction bidder.

Well, what could we do? I slipped into the conversation on IM, “Malcolm, what’s your eBay password so we can see what you’re bidding on?”

And he gave it to me!

So from there, we were off to the races. We logged on, found about 10 nice garden gnomes (look them up) and we put in bids on some of them and did buy it nows on several other fine examples of this oh-so-British-kitsch garden ornamentation. Which, BTW, a Scot would NEVER, EVER buy when sober.

We also loaded up his eBay browsing history with thigh-high, high-heeled leather boots, whips, chains, ladies underwear, and all other manner of naughty things.

And then we said absolutely nothing to Malcolm about it. For years. Fast forward about 3 years later, a few of us got together up at Malcolm’s place near Grantown on Spey and into casual conversation one guy said, “You’ve got a nice back garden here Malcolm, but it could use some garden gnomes.”

“You ####ing b@st@rds…”

Gawd, he turned so red and then told us the whole tale, when he looked at his eBay account the next day and saw what he thought he had been booze-bidding on, he’d almost lost his mind. He could NOT remember for the life of him bidding on those gnomes or browsing for all that other stuff and it drove him to (almost) swear off the sauce for good.

And then, he started wondering what ELSE he might have done to embarrass himself down at the pub, where he was quite smitten with the tasty Polish barmaid and a super-hot Slovak waitress who worked down there. So he had been avoiding the place for months out of an abundance of caution, being almost sure that he had said a few things to them…

Friends don’t let friends drink and eBay.

Love it Grouse.

I would still sell you something or buy from you BC.Hell i hope your drunk, might get more from what i’m selling or buy for less.

Great story FG! Pranks on friends are the best!

S%*t happens. We get busy. Just never heard back figured maybe it was a drunk thing.

Wasn’t online but a good story…

We were drunk at turkey camp one year. We went into the bar and walked over to the gas station for cigars. I spent $20 on exlax chocolates. The next day after some cocktails we made s’mores with them for one of the guys. Ended up feeding him like 4 doses worth. The next day, He had to stop and use the bathroom multiple times in the hour drive home. We didn’t tell him for for at least 6 years.

Dt that’s some good stuff there!

Let me know how the shiver stick turns out.

I have a JT panhandler, a couple finicky foolers in the cart, and ice cold fireball in the fridge.

Panhandler is probably a done deal later tonight
