Reading the rest of the blurb you need scissors, glue and felt tip pens for colouring so it sounds like you are buying plain card plus some instructions - all for nearly three quarters of a million quid. Or you could just buy a nice house. The seller is aptly named ToshTosh. A quick look at the seller’s other items for sale and their feedback indicates that they also sell somewhat dodgy jewellery.

This may set a new eBay record, I have seen many items offered at five times their real value, but never an item at five orders of magnitude more than its real value. Maybe one of the aforementioned "business people" will make them a slightly lower offer of £7.26, on the condition they give it as a donation to the institution they've clearly escaped from with the coloured paper and scissors. 2 2 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
