Wii Gift For Dad Goes Unwanted; Children Place It For Auction On eBay

While I highly doubt that the story told in this eBay auction is true, the user still gets points for creativity.
According to eBay user ericjfox, he and his sister bought their computer geek father a Nintendo Wii for Christmas, which ended up being a not-so-great idea. It turns out that dad didn’t want a Wii, and he ridiculed them for not being more attentive when he speaks.
So the ungrateful son and daughter are now unloading the Wii on eBay, and starting the auction at the console’s retail price of $250 USD.
The story details their attempts to get the system and goes more in depth about their father. While it’s obviously a big load of dung, it’s still an entertaining read, and you have to give the guy credit for not jacking up the price on the Wii (even though the buyers will do that for him).
I do have one complaint though. Unless this is completely accidental, it’s pretty shady to list Wii Sports as “five different sports games.”
If you want to read the story or bid on the auction, you can do so here.
