This is why you need an education
 
I know that writing a good "for sale" ad for a car isn't second nature to some people, but I don't understand how someone can look at their ad like this and not be ashamed:

"here it is its a 944 turbo the car its in a great condition,, runs drives great ... a very good freand of mine hase a boddy shope had it for a year did all the work paint rims. the car is stunly to look at the whole interir is like show room look u have to see it ..tiers and rims breand new ... im selling i have 3 kids and looking to by a familly car ... i spend over 8000 on the car .. wat ever quastion u have u can email ... jasonaukema@yahoo.com 570-396-7817 this is my freands email he will tell u all about the work he did if u need more in fo ... my email is oip11@yahoo.com im the seller thank u "

Original Ebay Ad Here

Obviously it's hard to tell from pictures, but seems like a decent car that would probably sell better if it didn't hurt to read the ad!

..........Harry, not Harris ...........of Blondie

I could not get though that ad, painful.

English as a second language?

I read a Craigslist ad a while back for a Mustang, the text stated (in one big run-on sentence) how the car had been babied and would make the ladies' panties drop. The four Craigslist pictures showed three of the Mustang doing a burn-out (babied car remember), and one shot of a woman with her panties around her ankles. Classic.

....if you think that's bad - take a look at the jobs/help wanted section on C/L............Figure if the potential employer cannot spell and use correct grammer in a short ad, most likely they cannot do the correct math on my paycheck. Just sayin'............

My favorite part of the ad is...

"...the car is stunly to look at..."

That could have a place in the hall of fame here with "gererator" and "a well set up 944" and others that I can't think of right now.

Elisha Cuthbert is stunly to look at, but I think she would be more stunly if she went brunette.

You still owe us for Bryan Adams, but she is bringing the goods in the second picture.

bivenator 03-29-2012 03:23 PM

Nickelback is Canandian, oh man where are those Predator drones when you need them.
