Arrow eBay - The Chav's favourite

Just been on eBay to be faced with their Top 10 searches

1. BMW
2. Queen
3. Mobile Phones
4. BURBERRY
5. MP3
6. Mini Cooper
7. LAMBRETTA
8. Nokia
9. Golf
10. PS2

think I might do a search for burberry and see what comes up...

My wife makes £100 profit a month on EBay wise ease.

Go to a car boot sale, haggle with someone, take some nice pics and sell on EBay. You just have to know what to look for

It must be said that I have seen a lot of stuff on ebay sell for more than you could get it new. It seems very much to depend on what you are selling but there do seem to be a lot of suckers out there who don't have a clear idea of the value of what they are buying.

In saying this the one item i did buy on ebay i paid full retail price for it, but it was no longer available and ebay was the only place i could find one. Under those circumstances it didn't seem like too bad a deal for me and I suppose lots of people feel the same.

I would not consider Lambretta Chav at all. I don't have loads but I do have a T-shirt.

Irrespective of whether I own one I cannot see that as Chav at all.

What about Firetrap....would you consider that to be Chav??

Yes, and also

McKenzie, Nicholson, Ben Sherman, Von Dutch, Umbro, Teddy Smith, Henri Lloyd, Kappa, etc.

Non-Chav would include Paul Smith, Diesel, Hugo Boss, Lacoste, Aquascutum (although sometimes a little questionable), Stone Island and Armani.

Stone Island is starting to get slightly chav, purely because of E-bay snides, but if you know anybody who has worn it since early nineties, I would think carefully before calling them a Chav!

Exclamation

Armani might be non-Chav, but it's definitely not non-tosser, along with Gucci.

Basically if it's a clothing brand available in JD Sports it's Chav.
