Lame.

I've got an iPod Jumbo if anybody is interested. it looks almost exactly like an iMac G3. It weighs 30lbs, needs to be plugged into an outlet to work, and only has a 6GB hard drive for song storage. But it runs a full blown copy of OS X and iTunes, and is truly portable with its convenient carry handle!

Why would you even post that? That's just stupid and a waste of MR's bandwidth.

(Sorry for the attitude, our dual 2.3Ghz G5 just bit the dust! so much for that DVD burning project I'm supposed to finish by friggen tomorrow...)

I want the 2 minutes of my life back that I wasted on this thread.

SNL hasn't been funny is 20 years and this lame attempt to piggy back on their "humor" is even worse.

Move along. Nothing to see here.

Haha, this is hilarious. You guys saying "OH MAN WHAT A LOSAR" Need to relax and realize this is the internet and just kind of chill. It's not like he's trying to sell it as a real ipod, it's obviously a joke auction.

Hmmm, maybe. But the joke would be on whomever bids. You call it a joke, I call it a scam.

Oh please people, at least it's a "real" object and not something "invisible"! If somebody is really interested in buying a play-doh iPod, then why not? Do you know of so many unusual things on eBay that are sold everyday? If somebody wins this for 1 cent, then that's awesome for them. It's not a scam at all. Howbout the person who bought a potato chip that looked like the Pope's hat for like $20,000. Was that a scam? Lighten up, it's Christmas time.. I'm not trying to get any profit from it.

Just as long as you didn't end up in the Land of Oz after all the twitching and unhitching.

I sorta feel bad for the OP. i think he just posted saying that there are a bunch of dumbasses on ebay. I think we should all lighten up, including me.

My .02 which are worth less then .02 to anyone other then me is that this object regardless of what it sells for is funny. Goofy yes, lame to some people yes but a scam??? Come on like someone posted earlier the grilled cheese that looks like the virgin mary(or whatever people think "that they see") that is a scam. This is strictly a joke auction that is currently at .30 cents lets give this guy a break if he was scamming people he would actually try to convince people that it was a real object. If anything he is not trying to profit off of the ipod craze hes actually mocking it, which is what makes the auction funny, the posting of it on this site funny and the fact I am defending so much time argueing for it funny.
