Please tell me a grotty pair of 'Well worn,scented shoes' are not what my timid mind think they are!
Just innocently browsing for shoes on eBay and I came across a pair of 'Well worn shoes' modelled by not the most attractive feet I have come across..Thought urgh surely not.....2 bids!!!!
My brain goes into overdrive and I just had to push it further didn't I...
I came across the 'Freakbay' section.....'Well worn scented shoes' with 30 bids standing at £31at the moment for a pair of cheap canvas shoes which would originally retailed at around a fiver...
I'm sooooo glad I missed that branch when the stork dropped me..

Just ewwwwwwww.Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')

No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
The idea is that you watch them wearing them on their website and then buy them on Ebay. You can also request videos where they stand on different things in them.
I regularly look for items in the "other collectibles" category and unfortunately worn shoes are one of the more tamer things people get away with selling. I do not see the appeal personally but if someone can make money out of their old shoes then good luck to them.0 -
It will be sale and demand to the weird fetishes the perverts have, used underwear is a very common one for sale and for the life of me I cannot figure out why sniffing somebodies dried bodily fluids is a turn on but then hey this is the strange world we live in now.0

"weel worn trashed pumps" current bid 101.50, 16 bids. Really? Nothing sinister in the page. Might get some old shoes out of my cupboard but might leave out the return address, lolfinally tea total but in still in (more) debt (Oct 25 CC £1800, loan £6453, mortgage £59,924/158,000)0

It's absolutely gross, maybe eBay would do as well having a spin-off site and calling it Freakbay.0 -

You'd get more for knickers so I am led to believe.0 -
