Fugly Friday - The Ugliest Things on Craigslist from the Jersey Shore
9:17 AM Don't get enough of her on TV? Now you can buy a Snooki costume on Craigslist!
I mean, they're bottles. What more can I say about them? Yes, they may be able to be made into something beautiful, but for two totes full, they want $500! Those are some pricey bottles people.
You know those Power Wheels cars that we all buy our kids to ride around in and then they end up breaking or stop charging or otherwise quit working? This person was so moved to take theirs apart piece by piece, throw it in a bucket and offer to sell it to you. Don't worry, the dismantled Power Wheels vehicle is only $75 and was not harmed in the production of this post.
Because who doesn't want a picture of ballerina feet on a piano in their living room? I do realize that perhaps, just maybe, a little girl who likes pianos and ballet may be interested in this for her room, but that is a pretty specific market.
The Jersey Shore is also offering to help you scar your children for life. Why is it that character costumes have to look so scary? Is it not possible to make them look a little less creepy and a little more realistic? This lovely Diego costume can be yours for $150. I would save my money though, because you would may a lot more in therapy after your child saw you in it.
It's vintage don't you know. There is that word again. Vintage. Otherwise known as the word I give to something I think no one will want, but will hopefully make it more appealing.

I love how people think using the word "vintage" makes their crap more appealing. No thanks.
ReplyDeleteThe Vintage yellow stove, to funny. The bottles, your kiddin me, what some folks think there crap is worth.. :-)
ReplyDeleteNo idea who Snookie is, and seeing that costume, I am glad!
ReplyDeletejerk... don't make fun of NJ ;) j/k That was pretty funny.
ReplyDeletelol I totally am not Erika. Any state that can make that much money off a reality show cast like that is A+ in my book. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's garage sale crap, actually that's just crap fit for the dumpster!
ReplyDeleteVintage and retro - huge buzz words on Craigslist and eBay. Old doesn't mean it's worth something!
ReplyDeleteThat's just crap ;)
ReplyDeleteI can't believe those bottles are $500.
ReplyDeleteOMG that three legged ballerina pic is freaky. I bet the third leg allows her to balance well on the piano though..
ReplyDeleteHow could you weild it down to those few photos? I'm sure there were TONS of fugly stuff from the Jersey Shore! =) (No offense to all my friends from NJ.) You should check out the center of CT next (i.e. the Waterbury area where I grew up) I'm sure you can find lots of Retro or Vintage crap!

ReplyDeleteLorie, you have just chosen next week's location. :)
Amazing what people think will sell
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love thi spost!
ReplyDeleteI honestly never watched that show. It looks and sounds stupid, haha.
ReplyDeleteI never watched it, but my boss loves it. I have no interest.Sorry....
ReplyDeleteThat picture is hilarious. Ballerina feet on a piano, yes please! lol
ReplyDeleteI've worked really hard to declutter and I understand the concept that one person's trash is another person's treasure but this boggles my mind!*lol*
ReplyDeleteHA! All of these were creepy in their own way although I think my 3yr old might actually dig big ole Diego. I'd LOVE for you to do a Las Vegas post!
ReplyDeleteI actually have no words. :O
ReplyDeletePeople want RIDICULOUS amounts of money for that garbage! My goodness!
ReplyDeleteLOL... $150 for Diego? Who would buy that?
ReplyDeleteIsn't the Jersey Shore crew almost done with their 15 minutes?!
ReplyDeleteYou give me such a laugh with your Craigslist posts :)
ReplyDeleteVintage, shabby chic, ......... cant they just say its old? ;P
lol Thanks for the laughs everyone. Marcie, I would be happy to do a Las Vegas post. Look for it in two weeks!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! I am always amazed at what people try to sell on Craigslist.
ReplyDeleteEven more amazed at how bad the spam has gotten on that site. One can't list a thing without someone offering way more for it, to arrange for pickup and fed ex a check to ya. ;)
I agree with you on the costumes. I don't get why they have to be so creepy either lol.
ReplyDeleteHeavens, that Diego costume IS scary! Yikes!
ReplyDeleteIf my in laws hadn't downsized, they would still have that exact same stove.
