Best. eBay. Message. Ever.

Hello, I was the winner of the item : [blah blah blah video game title] for $6.00 and I'm going to pay you the item and the shipping. ABout the method to pay, I live in [town name], Alabama, so the best way for me is to pay you by a bank account, I just need your account numbers of different banks and I'll send you the money and after you get it, you send the GAME to my address. If you know another way tell me please. Thank you.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!

He doesn't seriously think I'm going to send him my bank account numbers, does he?

I'll put on my "I Have Faith in Humanity! I Do! I Do!" cap and suggest that he wants to pay by having his bank make a wire transfer from his account to yours.

Hey, he's buying archaic video games--maybe he's still got one technological foot firmly planted in 1987.

Or maybe he just doesn't trust online payment methods, and hasn't the brainmeats to realize that a "wire transfer" these days is done online?

He might as well just buy a money order at the post office and mail it to you.

I was thinking the same thing--he must be thinking he can just transfer the money. He's very very new--0 feedback.

I'm still giggling.

Poor guy. I really hope he does get a money order--that would be the easiest thing for his poor Luddite brain to handle.
