Check it out, I'm sure some of you have already seen this, but it's a funny read:

:D

Haha, that kid got what he deserved. :D

Ouch. That's all I can say. :D

Better solution would have been to auction off the trouble maker LOL

That's -classic- !!

Thats gold baby!

A 13 yr old - can't believe what they get up to these days. At 13 I would not have know how to open a bottle of wine...... err and game consoles... pfffttt we had a apple IIe once... and I think the C64 came out a little bit later...

Got to kinda wonder if it is real. I have seen a couple eBay stories that turned out to be fake. Think of the free publicity they receive.

Still, made me laugh.

lol it still sold!!

hahaha how gutted would you be if you were that 13 year old

"Human Garbage Disposal"

"Human Punching Bag - Relieve your stress!"

"Annoy your friends, buy them one of these!" :D

ASK MY SON how nice, ask 'em ;) yourself...SOME TYPE OF MEMORY CARD not that im bashing this auction but SOME TYPE::::?HAPPY BIDDING! :cartman: :cartman: :cartman: :cartman:Thanks for bringing up the auction man!

Looks fake.

Seems a little odd that the parents would be more angry about the cost of all that, then the fact that their 13 year old was drinking beer and wine.

I know parents of a little annoying 15 year old son who just acted up to much and the parents sold his games, and all :D. The 15 year old just put up a fuss, but the parents didn't give in.

My friend LOVES to slam doors and a few days ago he slammed his bedroom door and his father said "one day you are gonna come home and you WON't have a door!" and the next day he got home and there is no door.

The door is now being used as his dad's "work" bench for his tools out in the garage.

what is your Kid's mail ID like to send him this link :spam:

Thats so dumb.

Now if the child were mine, I'd have sold the PS2 and replaced it with this (http://retrogamer.merseyworld.com/atari.htm). Ahh the gold ol' days! :D

playstation is not life !

This must be a blessing in disguise for the 13 yr old

Atleast now he will have time for the other goodies like girls, etc :D

Interesting way of getting back at your own offspring :D

Hehe, that was a good one. :) I don't think the seller needed to give the story, but it helped; 22 bids.

I wonder what the son must have thought when he got all the questions 'How's your PS?'.

Whatever he said, it didn't work. (I am sure he said 'Its crap!')

good stuff .......... kids got to learn

Parents please let your children read this auction.



It was a glory day when my son received his Play Station 2. This beloved machine was his prize possession. He played, if not for hours at a time. When he would not take care of anything else, but he took care of this little treasure of his. Ground him, take away phone privileges………….anything but this PS2.



UP FOR AUCTION OR

FOR SALE DUE TO PUNISHMENT



PLAY STATION 2

PS2

USED

PLAYS GREAT! ASK MY SON



CHICKNWING@SBCGLOBAL.NET



COMES WITH TWO CONTROLERS

SOME TYPE OF MEMORY CARD

NO GAMES

NO RESERVE





Here is the story: This weekend my 13 year old son decided to be destructive, deceptive and disobedient. I had a bugle I was selling on Ebay and while I was out he decided to “play” with it. Sunday morning when the auction was to end, He picked up the bugle and asked me if I knew it was broken. He handed me the bugle which he had “played” with and both solder joints were broken and since it was out of alignment the slide is now stiff.



Lets back up one night. That was the tip of the iceberg. Saturday night I send my son & his friend to the skating rink like the rest of the parents. I was to pick him up from the skating rink after it ended. Well he went home, while I was not there with his friend and they invited someone I do not know to the house while WE were not there. I get home about 11:30 PM and find the house is wrecked. Beer was missing. Confronted son and friends about beer…Yes they had drank the beer. -$6.00 Strike one!



Get up the next morning only the find the mysteriously broken bugle! -$51.00 Strike Two!



Here is the kicker…………..Husband finds the corkscrew in the floor and part of a cork in the floor. Ask son who is play his beloved Play Station 2 if he has any thing he would like to tell us?

Son- “No”

Dad- “Really?

Son- “No”

Dad- “what did you use this corkscrew for?”

Son- “To open the beer.”

Dad- “What about this cork?”

Son- “What cork?”

Dad- “This cork.”

Son “Oh, THAT cork. I drank some wine too.”

Dad- “Well I hope you enjoyed that because it cost $120.00 a bottle!”



LET THE YELLING BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



That’s right my 13 year old son drank a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne- 1995. PUT IT BACK IN THE FRIDGE WITH PART OF A CORK AND THE LITTLE METAL THING BACK ON TOP! -$120.00.



THAT BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE WAS A GIFT THAT WE HAVE BEEN SAVING FOR OVER A YEAR FOR THAT “SPECIAL” OCCASION.





SO I AM MINUS ABOUT $177 FOR THIS WEEKEND LITTLE ANTICS. NOT TO MENTION THE AGGRAVATION OF THE ARUGING, LYING AND DECEPTION. I AM NOT GOING TO PUT UP WITH THAT KIND OF BEHAVIOR FROM A CHILD. EVEN A 6’3” 13 YEAR OR ANY ONE WHO DISRESPECTS ME & MY STUFF.



SO CHILDREN LISTEN UP DO NOT DISRESPECT YPUR PARENTS YOUR FRIENDS OR YOURSELF BECAUSE US PARENTS ARE SMARTER THAN YOU AND WE WILL FIND OUT ABOUT ANY AND ALL THINGS YOU TRY TO HIDE.



I AM SELLING THOS PRIZE possession TO RECOOP WHAT I LOST.



THIS IS NOT THE ACTUAL PICTURE BUT I WILL ADD ONE OF THE ACTUAL SYSTEM WHEN I GET A CHANCE TO TAKE A PICTURE.



HAPPY BIDDING!

sounds like a fake story to me......

old news

Dont u just hate it wen you post old news lol

yeah but look at the amount of visitors! 279,146!!! wow

oops :(
sorry, didnt know about the other thread, sorry guys.

i just did the exact same thing a few weeks ago.

mess with mom, and you pay.

near new ps1, 10 games, 2 controllers, 3 memory cards

$45.00

what a deal.

I sitl laughed at it, I had no idead about this. I think from now on I will put my TV, and all of my consoles on my closts covered by blanets so they can't see it lol.

We can only hope:
a) he's an only child
b) mom's fixed
c) dad's fixed
d) all of the above.

;-)

I agree with phill2003. sounds fake. probably pretty effective, though.


Some thoughts:

1) When I was 13, I didn't have a key to the house. Didn't need one. Didn't have absentee parents.

2) When I was 13, I wasn't out ANYWHERE at 11:30pm unless I was spending the night at a friend's house or were with my parents. If they got home at 11:30, were they picking the kid up at midnight? Come on.

3) Selling the console, but not the games? What's that about? That's just telling the kid another console is in his future. Unless that's the scam?? Is there another unit that plays PS2 games? lol
He/she/they are financing the birthday present with a little creative writing backed eBay?

And even if it's ALL TRUE... the idea that anything coming outta that house would be in working order, is comical, at best.

The 16 year old daughter probably came home with one of her new friends (another named "John" ;-)), found the parents drunk (again), and broke the unit while doing the horizontal mambo in the brother's room. So, they need a new one.

or not.
lol

That kid had totally ZERO class. When I was 13 I had already bought a beautiful silver besson trumpet (within 12 inches of me now...my laptop sits on the case), had worked paper routes and mowed lawns, removed trees etc for money, had already found out the easiest way to get alcohol was to stake out strangers homes (we never took stereos, tvs, cash or jewelry...just booze...how classless to steal from people you love) and by 14 we had grown out of the 'steal booze from stranger home syndrome' and I was personally throwing live band, 2 keg parties, 5 bucks at the door whenever mom went to play bridge (4 times a month) and we ALWAYS paid for our own kegs...jeeez...the nerve of that kid.
