    honestly, for a guy like this tryiing to sell an idea he has on ebay, the best feeling has to be seeing golden palace casino's name as the winning bidder. instantly you know he's gonna get paid and you know he's not gonna be ripped on if the value in the envelope isn't enough. it's a good ending to the story.

    they bought the virgin mary toast, the body advertisement, the forehead ad, the cleavage ad...a bunch of other things (i might have been wrong on some of those). but basically they are an online casino that buys a bunch of stuff that makes headlines on ebay as to get their name in the news. cheap advertising i guess.

    To paraphrase the immortal words of P.T. Barnum, there's a sucker born every minute, and most of them buy crap from eBay.

    No, but they may pay you like $10K to shave their trademark into your beard for 2-3 years.
