Times are tough, and we're all looking for ways to supplement our incomes.

I'd like you to give the following question some serious thought before you answer.



If I were to list myself for sale on eBay, would you place a bid for me, and exactly how high would you go?

Well that would depend on what you would do. Is cooking and cleaning included? If so you are priceless.
Chris E. May 5, 2009, 7:33pm EDT
And I probably couldn't afford you.

Kimberly, I'm surprised at you. :-) Does your mother know?
I was already to write something of ebay and dealings I've had with it and find you for sale. Where are we headed next?
Janet "Jax" B. May 5, 2009, 7:38pm EDT
I couldn't afford you either....

Kimberly I wouldnt buy anyone on ebay or anywhere else. Not for any noble reasons but I just wouldnt know what to do with you or anyone else.

I remember when the girl sold her virginity. What a fiasco.

I think most people are like me..its the people that would buy someone off ebay that scare the shat out of me. I would imagine they would be like the craigslist killer.

Honey I love you but I couldn't afford to feed you.

One more thing, DON'T DO IT! The kids and the hubby would miss you.

Since you can't sell human body parts on eBay (I did once and they removed my ad...though I figured out a way around their rules and sold it on there anyway...a human skull carved out of a human bone from a concentration camp in Germany during World War II), I'd hypothetically need to know how good the cookies are that you bake before I could place an opening bid. I know I wouldn't draw a plug nickel.

Shipping would be the killer.
Leah Christensen May 5, 2009, 8:15pm EDT
I second what Chris said!
Kathryn E. May 5, 2009, 8:54pm EDT
Priceless, and like everything these days, shipping is the killer. eBay is getting tougher and tougher. Hubby has been doing it for years.

I need to see the product description. Of course, I already know some of it!
Kushal Poddar May 5, 2009, 10:36pm EDT
I would scratch my head and say a dumb thing like "I have to sell my self to buy this product."

Are you putting a reserve on yourself?
Linda G. May 6, 2009, 9:10am EDT
I guess I am opposed to people being sold for any reason, So I guess the answer would be no. That doesn't mean I believe you have no value, pehaps no monetary value can ever be placed on a person.
Lisa Frost May 6, 2009, 9:02pm EDT
I think people are worth much more than money. It doesn't matter, since I don't have any money either.... It is an interesting question though.

will slavery return?
My dear, you are priceless.

Of course I'd want to buy you Kimberly but what in the world would I do with you IF and when I could afford you??

I wouldn't bid because I would be depressed when someone else bid more and I lost.
Since I wouldn't be able to bid very much to start with.
