Funny E-Bay posting - a must read! |

This is soooo funny! A must Read! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8335653541 You are bidding on a mistake. We all make mistakes. We date the wrong people for too long. We chew gum with our mouths open. We say inappropriate things in front of grandma. And we buy leather pants. I can explain these pants and why they are in my possession. I bought them many, many years ago under the spell of a woman whom I believed to have taste. She suggested I try them on. I did. She said they looked good. I wanted to have a relationship of sorts with her. I’m stupid and prone to impulsive decisions. I bought the pants. The relationship, probably for better, never materialized. The girl, whose name I can’t even recall, is a distant memory. I think she was short. Ultimately the pants were placed in the closet where they have remained, unworn, for nearly a decade. I would like to emphasize that: Aside from trying these pants on, they have never, ever been worn. In public or private. I have not worn these leather pants for the following reasons: I am not a member of Queen. I do not like motorcycles. I am not Rod Stewart. I am not French. I do not cruise for transvestites in an expensive sports car. These were not cheap leather pants. They are Donna Karan leather pants. They’re for men. Brave men, I would think. Perhaps tattooed, pierced men. In fact, I’ll go so far as to say you either have to be very tough, very gay, or very famous to wear these pants and get away with it. Again, they’re men’s pants, but they’d probably look great on the right lady. Ladies can get away with leather pants much more often than men can. It’s a sad fact that men who own leather pants will have to come to terms with. They are size 34x34. I am no longer size 34x34, so even were I to suddenly decide I was a famous gay biker I would not be able to wear these pants. These pants are destined for someone else. For reasons unknown - perhaps to keep my options open, in case I wanted to become a pirate - I have shuffled these unworn pants from house to house, closet to closet. Alas, it is now time to part ways so that I may use the extra room for any rhinestone-studded jeans I may purchase in the future. These pants are in excellent condition. They were never taken on pirate expeditions. They weren’t worn onstage. They didn’t straddle a Harley, or a guy named Harley. They just hung there, sad and ignored, for a few presidencies. Someone, somewhere, will look great in these pants. I’m hoping that someone is you, or that you can be suckered into buying them by a girl you’re trying to bed. Please buy these leather pants. |

Thank you Ries for posting this!!!! The guy has genuine writing talent in my opinion - I wish he would write a book!!!! So fuuny I cracked up laughing - if that doesn't sell his pants nothing will!! 
 Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn |

PS-On the eBay auction page there are numerous questions posed to the seller and his answers to them. I have never seen public dialogue of this sort on eBay before. Is it a new feature? Deb A Girl's Best Friend |

Yes this guy deserves fame and fortune IMO, Mr Lorelei got a huge laugh out of his ad too! BTW we say something is "pants " in England if something sucks, but I think it means more underpants than trousers  Who knows, leather pants might even become fashionable again after this

This is great! And the pants did sell - 22 bids, sold for $102.50.  On E-bay in the Q/A section at the bottom the seller says he used to write commercials. If you click on the "more" link at the end of some of the longer responses there are 2 more pages of funny Q/A's!

I love this ad...hysterical. ok, I will admit that I actually have a pair of not just leather pants, but black suede pants. Might not be so bad for me since I'm a girl and they don't make me look like a gay man. They were given to me as a gift. They look like dressy slacks (as opposed to hot mama rocker pants ). The funny thing is that for all the times I have worn them (yes, I have worn them), no one even noticed or said anything. They don't have the shine of leather...maybe that's why. Or maybe no one wanted to tell me the truth  Has anyone ever seen the SNL skit with Brittney Murphy and Jimmy Fallon in the leather store? Very funny. Rita |
