This is actually an interesting idea. You could troll ebay sellers by intentionally asking them inane questions that are vaguely offensive, plausible but unlikely, and question their knowledge and integrity without being outright insulting.
Woah guys! Sorry if I'm being the asshole here, but the lady asks a legit question about an item for sale, and you guys jump all over her and start mocking her and casting aspersions over her. Even going as far to make fun of her listings? Must be a slow day, am I right?
She may have asked an inane question, and I'm sure you've all had problems with 'bad buyer's in the past, but this thread doesn't shine a pretty light on a lot of members here...
I agree the insults are not needed.
New members these days are fucking lame
OptOut brought another perspective to the discussion, and actually makes a good point whether you agree or not. It's fine to get a little laugh about someone's silly question, but I also think it's a little over the top and inappropriate for a member here to actually message her on ebay about the transaction that they have nothing to do with, whether joking or serious about the offer. I also think it's not productive to call another user here "fucking lame" because they don't agree with harassing and ridiculing someone. I don't care whether someone has been here for 10 minutes or 10 years, we should still treat each other with more respect.
I'm fine with being fucking lame when I need to be if it means checking ourselves every now and then just to make sure we're not coming across like a bunch of bullies.

But seriously I wouldn't sell to her this might be some kind of BS tactic to scam you.
No shit, she is going to think she is in the middle of some kind of spider importation crime.
Ha!
