Worst eBay Pipe Sale Description Ever

[MisterBadger]

Yep those Rejects are top notch.

 

[Infantry23]

Sounds delightful. Might have to pick that up as a gift for my PMSS match.

We all lust after a birth year Reject. A true status symbol.

 

[Chasing Embers]

Sounds more like someone that English isn't their first language.

I smell scam !

I’ve been reading that plug and play description a lot lately. I have the feeling many sellers are using eBay suggested pricing as well.

Well, it all depends. I don't know about those fancy British Reject pipes, but my lowly Preben Holm reject is one of the best smoking pipes I've ever owned.

Viva la reject!

 

[Pooh-Bah]

What, this computerized fool (or sketchy ESL vendor, I suppose) knew to hyphenate must-have and well-known, but not half-bent? ...Personally as a hyphen addict, I draw the line at "high-quality", that's like "to-morrow" to me.

Perfect for alcohol? Ah, yes, you pour into the bowl and drink through the stem, allowing the tobacco cake to season your beverage.

We all lust after a birth year Reject. A true status symbol.

One could argue that most of us here are the birth year rejects. That was funnier before I wrote it.

There were unfilled pits in the bowl and two very obvious incipient cracks in the shank. But very reassuring to know that it's made of wood. Bidding starts at £9.99.

Here's another AI gem from the same seller (for a Hungarian/Alpine style, this time):

"This vintage Bruyere Garantie wooden smoking pipe is a unique addition to any collection. The pipe features a billiard body shape and is designed for alcohol and smoking. The brand is well-known for producing high-quality smoking pipes, and this one is no exception. Although the pipe is untested, it is a beautiful piece that would make a great display item. The country/region of manufacture is unknown, adding to the mystery and allure of this antique piece. This Bruyere Garantie wooden smoking pipe is perfect for collectors and smoking enthusiasts alike."

Starting price, only £19.99. Curiously, no bids received for either...

It's AI. Its first language is machine code.
