The following is an actual eBay auction description I used for a couple copies of “Guitar Hero” I bought at my local Target after I heard there was a shortage of them in some parts of the world. Ever the honest soul, I thought I’d lay a little truth and wisdom on the prospective buyers to be. Enjoy.

Waited until the last minute? Your kid is dying to get the hottest game this Christmas, but all the store shelves are empty? Is your child one of those kids that insistently whines when he doesn’t get what he wants?

Do you want to have stress free Christmas just once? Well, this might be your last chance to shut that spoiled brat up. Better yet, you need to show that kid who is boss. If I were you, I would buy this silly game for myself, and make the kid sit there and watch me play it until I got bored, and just throw it in the trash. That will teach that young punk.

I don’t think you can put a price on that type of satisfaction, so feel free to bid this item up.
