Whether its just some BS story made up to attract attention to the auction were not sure, but some woman just sold her 13-year-old sons PlayStation 2 on eBay as punishment for (among other hijinks) him drinking a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne shed been saving for a special occasion:
Thats right my 13 year old son drank a bottle of 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.
Whats even crazier is that some sucker coughed up 122 bucks for it even though you can buy a brand new PS2 for just $150 these days.
