Do You Think This Is A Kinky Request

I am currently selling a pair of worn trainers on Ebay and as they are now rare the current bid is £57.50 (very happy). However today I received a request for a picture of me wearing the trainers. I complied with the request as thought he may want to see what they looked like on. However having read other posts about pervy users I suddenly thought this may be the case here!!! lol :rotfl:

Any thoughts?


This is a genuine post and you can see the request on the questions section at the bottom of the listing as I stupidly posted it not thinking about why the buyer would ask!!!

    I was selling old trainers and 2 people asked for more photos including ones wearing them, I did at the time think it was strange but just complied anyway.

    If people get turned on by my feet in smelly old trainers then god help them!!

    lol :T

    I think the other bids are genuine as this particular pair of trainers seem to always go for a lot even when second hand. However it does seem like the "potential buyer"may not be after a sought after pair of trainers!!!

    He has not bid but as first response stated if he does hes welcome to get any frill he wants as long as he pushes the bidding up further!!!:rotfl:
  • Now i find this quite funny, as i used to sell all my old performance gear on ebay, and some of the requests that cam through were shall we say "perverse" but my way of thinking is, if you want to pay for me to wear some trainers/dance shoes/leotard etc and you want it sent to you in a certain way "washed to ebay/customer standards etc then im happt to supply.

    At the end of the day its a supply and demand world, they demand it, you supply it,but as with everything theres a price!!!#

    Now wheres those sweaty socks!!!!

    I sold some trainers on ebay a few weeks back and got quite a detailed question, asking if i ever wore them with the laces out and a request for a photo of me wearing them with the laces in and out. I just told the person to google Dunlop Green Flash.

    Weirdo.... :rotfl:

    They are foot fetishists.
    you will get a lot more if you sell worn shoes in private auctions and provide a pic to the winning bidder.
    you can get more for worn shoes than for brand new shoes if you get it right!
    They like the smell of worn footwear and the feel of the foot indentations.
    i think this may be one of the 'grey areas' of ebay as I dont know if it is strictly allowed but it isn't banned IYSWIM.

    I found out about it because I sold some shoes on ebay!
    Then i had requests asking if I had worn them.
    Then I searched on ebay and found a lot of interesting things!!!

    There is money to be made from fetishists!

    Was the request for only the trainers and no other clothes?
