Funny eBay reply from seller
I bought a DVD on eBay and got this reply from the seller telling me the DVD is on its way to me:
Hello dear e-bay buyer,
This is to let you know that a very big stetched-limo stopped in front of
my (by now not so) humble apartment today with in it the director-general
of THE bank of the netherlands HQ. He personally wanted to deliver me the
notification that he has received a payment for an ebay auction.
Is that was such a rare and special occasion I dusted of my telephone and
inmediately took the appropriate action. The top-ranking highly trained staf
was called back from their well earned brak and flown in, to do that one
thing in their life, that was the whole sole purpose of their beeing.
Therefore......... Your CD (or as it might happen a DVD) has been gently
taken from our sterilised and dust free shelves with contamination-free gloves
and placed onto a satin pillow.
A team of 50 employees inspected your CD (or DVD) and polished it to make
sure it was in the best possible condition before taking his long journey
towards you, our beloved customer.
Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over the
crowd as he put your CD (or...you guessed it, DVD) into the finest gold-lined
box that money can buy.
After the candle was lit, 21 white doves were released, lead by a grey dove
(the grey signalizing a leading and marking of a safe transcendence from
heaven to earth). And finally, (it was a hard search, and it becomes even
rarer and harder) seven young virgins (not those old grans) blessing the
package with rose water to make sure nothing can go wrong on it's journey.
Some of them even volunteerd to go along to you, but we could not risk overexcitemed
of our beloved customer.
Festivities are underway to mark this occasion including the unveiling of
a new postage stamp and a new coin bith containing the image of one of the
best, or better said, the best ebay-er customer ever.
The bells of nearby St. David's clock tower will ring, on the hour, for the
next 5 days. And the world shall hear the triumphal news proclaimed through
channels as youtube, cnn, bbc, bbcworld, rtl, foxnews, myspace, blogs, the
wallstreet journal, etc....
Ofcourse a ebay feedback is given, a superdeluxe +++++++++ one.If the parcel
has arrived to your satisfaction, and the contents do please use, a feedback
will also be appreciated. If something, somewhere has gone wrong, please,
please, please use any form of communiation possible (mail, phone, fax, letter,
pigeon, telex, morse code) to notify us of the problem and it will ofcourse
be solved. As we rather solve problems then receiving those awfully red remarks
from ebay.
At the end of the day we all had a wonderful celebration and the whole village
of Woudenberg marched down the street and waved 'Bon Voyage!' to your package,
on its way to you, in our own private jet.
But please be aware that this private jet sometimes has a will of his own
and has been caught before when he tried to disguised himself as a padded
envelope)....
Thank you once again,
Regards...abeldoorn
Okay, it IS funny.
