check it out.

I do see quite a bit of this going on at ebay. This particular auction looks to be entirely bogus. It looks to be an old icebox with some car parts and a few other odds and ends. But maybe thats how you get away with it. Disguise the time machine to look like a worthless piece of junk. No one would ever suspect. And another thing that is a bit odd. A bidder calling themself Golden Palace Casino, has been buying up all these bogus time machines. And money doesn't seem to be an object. Also the bidder has been changing his name, but the older name shows up under the profile.

Just think, the time machines are bootleg time machines from the future which probably means they are real. And the one bidder that keeps getting them all is a timecop. LOL
 
actually the golden palace people buy up stuff like this for publicity. they bought the 35,000 dollar sandwhich which had a pic of Virgin Mary on it. along with a cursed walking cane and some other crazy shiznit like that. real or not they're doing it for the publicity.
 
OMG what a joke. Dilluted plutonium? plutonium drip? this isn't 1985 you can't just goto the local drugstore and buy a pound of plutonium. Not to mention being this close to a plutonium source without shielding would be deadly in a matter of hours of exposure. to actually have a sustained reaction you'd need enough plutonium to power a moderate sized nuke. a couple pounds, which carries the burden of being a nuclear reactor and prolly without any control rods or cooling.

plutonium is extrememly hard to come by, and most of all getting it into the USA is damn near impossible due to all the equipment the gov't had setup. I hear people getting pulled over by feds for just getting radiation treatment at hospitals.

this is obviously a joke cuz if it were real it would be a one way trip. You'd die (and who cares if you travel in time if your dead!)
 
Yeah i think its meant to be a joke, and i think they assume everyone to laugh with them on it.

After all, not many people would work a NES joyad into the circuit would they.....
Personally i thought that photo was quite funny.
 
All the time machines that get sold on ebay look like jokes. Maybe thats the whole idea. Make it look like an obvious joke. Then the winning bidder gets s big surprise when it really works. Not once have I seen any negative feedback from a time machine sale. So something seems a little screwy here. It just doesn't add up. What are you going to do? Tell you friends you just bought a time machine off ebay for 15 grand and it doesn't work. I just don't understand why so much money gets spent on something that looks bogus.
 
I was just checking on the status of this time machine sale, and it looks like ebay officials have removed the item from auction.

Probably because they jokingly said it came with Plutonium. Those kids were about to make a little extra cash. Last I saw it was up to $1,000.

Now that you mention it, I think I was looking at that this morning. I think there were 50 bids at that point. Something is not adding up here. A bogus time machine. Furious bidding. Auction cancelled by ebay. There is a piece of this puzzle missing. The next time I see one of this hilarious auctions, I'm going to keep track of the bidders. Right now we are all left in the dark as to why the auction was cancelled. The answers might be there for the asking from the seller and the bidders. All we have to do is ask.

Wouldn't that be cool if these are real time machines being sold right out in the open with the facade of being bogus?

I don't quite understand the bidding frenzy either. Maybe one of us should try to sell a "time machine" on eBay and see how much it gets up to.

I am pretty sure that their auction was canceled due to mentioning that it came with plutonium.
