I'm selling this 'mystery box' just how it is right now. I'm not going to say what is in it. Just give a few simple hints. If you want it you can bid, ths highest bid in a week gets it. After that I will put up another 'mystery box' for sale.

-The box contains 15 items, ranging in prices from $0-$25.
-All of the items are brand new/slightly used, and are completly random*. You never know what you are going to get.

Once I have a buyer, I will post one picture of what they got.

Shipping-Buyer pays shipping
CA = N/A but AK = OK.
Or any other place in the US.

We will start the bid at $20

*Random items consist of video games, electrons accessories, or random things I find around my house.

Has it sold yet? You need to put like a final date for bidding, or else it will go on forever!

THANK YOU!!! You just saved me 5 minutes of my precious time. I no longer feel the need to rant on about why this is the dumbest fucking thing Ive ever seen and why you bored as hell kids are actually bidding on this. I really hope noone buys this, especially not for...wait let me check....$45 I believe is what I saw as the highest bid....

I mean come-the-fuck-on people. Even if I had money the throw at worthless shit Id at least go do something amusing with it. "Ooohhhh oooohhhh. I really want to see whats in that box. Jeez what will it be? Ski stuff? Random good? Oh maybe its a Playstation." I hope its a bag of dog shit with the buyers name written on the top of it so you can realize that your just spending money on worthless crap.

Well I managed to still kill 5 minutes of my precious time, but whatever I dont care.

Let the highest quitter obtain this magical box of magic.

PS. I know whats inside....

wow!!!

an energy drink...will be completely shaken up and flat by the time it gets to you

post it notes??? wtf!!!

expired plane ticket...awesome deal there




what a complete waste of money...

if you people were gonna waste money, you shoulda just taken a shit and used the $$ to wipe your ass, cuz that would have been 100 % more worthwhile than bidding on this dudes shitty leftover worthless garbage...

im amazed at some peoples stupidity!!!

bro did you forget the laser pointer?!?!  that alone is worth like $85-$90.

seriously though, people who bid knew it wasn't gonna be awesome stuff, it's there money, it's maclem's (sp?) idea so just let it be.  he's not ripping anyone off, and he was just getting rid of some stuff in a creative way.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. My friend wrote that rant. He was pretty pissed for some reason at the fact that people would throw $45 at a box with random stuff in it. HAHAHA.

Maclem how much did you get for it??

Brilliant idea by the way to make cash. I wish I had though of it.
