There's a story about an eBay auction for a VHS tape of a really bad B - movie. The seller made it seem like it was a cult classic, with a super long and over - hyped description. The bidding war that ensued was more for the fun of it, as everyone knew the movie was terrible. It became a funny event within the eBay community. Many of the bidders later shared how they were just in it for the laughs.
There was this story I heard. A person was selling a collection of old postcards. The description was a bit off and instead of getting annoyed, the bidders started making up their own stories about the postcards in the comments.

There was an elderly man with amnesia who believed he was still in his twenties. He would try to go clubbing with his grandson. He'd dress up in the most out - of - style clothes from his youth and try to dance like he used to. It was a very humorous sight for everyone at the club.
