More eBay humor....

Basically it's a standard design concertina plastic rain hat like you would see often in the 70s (and pay the same price for as a can of soft drink), except it has a bootlace instead of a cotton or plastic tie and the lace has a Hermes logo. It also just happens to be exactly the same color as Australia's most popular type of garbage bin liner.

All for a mere $119US as a reserve, add another 60 to save the hassle of waiting for the end of the auction, plus postage of course.

I have a collection of about 35-40 similar rain bonnets. If I ever put them up as a job lot (and even somehow recalled and threw in all those I've ever donated for 'shoots') I would not have the hide to ask anywhere near that.

My message to 'French fashion Victim':
Qu'est-ce que tu vas essayer de me vendre prochaine? Je sais que certains de terrain de premier droit en vertu de Sydney Harbour Bridge ....

Sold at the second listing, for the 'buy it now' price of $179.

Absolutely unbelievable.

What were they paying for? The Hermes box?
