Just been scrolling through ebay and came across this (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1469&item=5601695580&rd=1) !!

I can't help but think of 'prostitution'!!!

Are people soooo desperate for money/notoriety they would seriously do this to themselves??

Why??



:o

It won't be a tattoo to be proud of!!

That's a very strange advert, isn't it?

I'm surprised eBay let it run - it's also a bit weird to have something tattooed on you for only a 4 figure sum, IMO. I mean, you're stuck with it for good or until you get laser surgery....

Can't understand it myself. Mind you, I'd never consider a tattoo in the first place but it is amazing what people will do for money.

Shiesh, look at this: http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/1,1249,600145187,00.html

Apparently, people ARE that desperate! The tattoo artist tried for seven hours to talk her out of it! Lordy!

Scary - it really isn't a lot of money, either (well, not for that sort of disfigurement)

Would her son get a significant 'education boost' for $10,000? I wouldn't have thought so.....

I think if I were her son, I would fall even further behind after kids at school taunted me and laughed at me because my mum was 'the one who had her face tattooed for money'

I'd be so humiliated if my mum did that!

I think the goldenPalace casino actually gave her an extra $5k out of pity as well.

would prefer not to comment on the person selling herself, however after trawling ebay for years this is the first time i've even seen this section.

the goldenPalace has also bought a temporary tatoo acros someones cleavage.
A piece of cheese on toast that looks like the virgin mary and something else odd like a haunted walking stick or something... Generally for several thousand dollars.

It's good publicity for them.

HAHA This is so funny. I cant believe their are people out there that are so stupid to tatoo their face like this for money. It really makes me wonder what some people are on.

I know their will be people that say, 'oh you dont know what you will do if you were so desperate' but I think in this case I can take a wild guess and think NOT THAT!!

Gosh...I can't believe you have never looked/noticed the really bizarre/weird stuff section on ebay....

It is my favourite section - It makes me feel glad to be 'normal'!! Some of the stuff I have seen on there....

cornflakes
scabs
water
half eaten bananas
rubbish discarded by famous people ie., drinks cartons etc
emperors new clothes (a Sheffield nutter that one... :hihi: )
teeth

...need I go on!!

:P
