and 3 already sold!
3?! Not the stunning result I'd expect...

Well, maybe if they marketed it better. I'd go with something like this:

- Goldilocks (TM) - stunning detail and midrange and treble clarity for true audiophile experience

- Mermaid strands (TM) -
fluid sound for jazz and classical

- Unicorn Bristles (TM) - pace, attack and hard hitting bass for rock and metal

:biggrin:

As long as they say it's not snake oil (on ebay, while selling it), then we should take their word for it.

If anyone is dumb enough to read that and actually hand over their money then they deserve to be ripped off. Idiots.

That should be the slogan of every consumer rights organization. Russ will gladly sponsor the banner printing.

I bet that you could start a hifi company who's slogan is "A fool and his money are easily parted" and you would still manage to sell a few.

All you need to do is write some flowery BS such as it being made from genuine CNC machined unicorn testis and some tool will believe it and pay $$$$.

If you put "snake oil" in the ebay search box, it's surprising how many products come up. It would appear people needing hair treatment are even more gullible than hifi enthusiasts.

The apprenticeship for selling these products is served by using this item from ebay: 292177223050

Not so fast. You need a bloke with letters after his name like a 'holistic designer' for instance ...

He invented 'Zapperators'...

Ben found it important to tell us on his holistic home page that ...

"Ben Duncan Research operates in harmony alongside nature, on a 30 acre site, with organic gardens, ancient water meadow, new English parkland with over 800 trees, and rich wildlife."

That guy looks like he's jumped straight out of a Douglas Adams novel.

Yep that definitely sounds very Douglas Adamy.
