Poetic descriptions

These ebay sellers really get on my nerves. Anyone who has ever tried to buy an MP3 player will understand. Buy it now for 1p, postage £35 etc.

But sometimes the descriptions are amusing.
WTF is being described here (blue text) certainly not an electro acoustic guitar.

Also. I'm no expert, but that don't look electro acoustic to me anyway.

And the postage is £150, is that right? Also "My shop has contained warehouse of more ebay items. " Warehouses inside his shop? That's a damn big shop!

It's not even what it says...

That's a solid body, not electro accoustic. I was looking at one of the Chinese exporters selling tig welders and the description was amusing, it contained circuitry making it very adaptable to electricity. If you didn't know you were going to be hit with import and vat, some of the items would be tempting though.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

apparently didn't translate well into Chinese. Or English, for that matter!
