    At time of me posting right now bidding is at £1000.00 :eek: I can't believe people will go so high for a "chance" to get on the show.

    It could be people just bdiing it with no intention of paying as the have hardly any feedback but if it's genuine I feel sorry for them paying so much just for a 1 in 100 chance of getting on the show and why would you want to appear on it?

    People would have to be pretty desperate for fame and fortune to end up bidding stupid amounts for golden tickets just for a chance that they might to get on BB.

    I can't believe the scammers on eBay. Selling KitKats for a small fortune makes eBay a joke, and I dare not report it or raise the issue on the eBay chat forums because I have been sent emails from eBay in the past saying that -I- am in breach of their rules for doing so!

    But it makes my blood boil to see people advertising their Golden Ticket listings with a nice picture of a golden ticket and really hazy wording. One of them eventually reveals you are only bidding on a KitKat, but THIS KITKAT HAS A GOOD FEELING AND CANNOT BE IGNORED! (so that's alright then!)
    Some of these blimmin' Kit Kats don't even have the Big Brother logo on them!


    Good grief - an auction for what does look like a real golden ticket has now passed £5000! Why didn't these bidders just attend the FREE Big Brother auditions? With another 99 people up against them, they are still going to have quite a job getting into that freaky house. Mind you, if they are insane enough to waste so much money on it, perhaps they have the right frame of mind after all. I have half a mind to go mad buying KitKats myself, find a stupid ticket, and find a stupid buyer!

    and it all ends tonight and very few of the 100 tickets have been registered so the odds are much shorter
