Letters to Ebay: Hilarious Auctions, Crazy Emails, and Bongos for Grandma
By day, Paul Meadors is a fifth grade teacher in a small California town. By night, he trolls the millions of items for sale on eBay, posing as his alter ego Art Farkas, and catching sellers off guard with his ludicrous and bizarre questions about their auctions. As he amusingly demonstrates time and time again, even in today’s hyper-vigilant and impersonal digital world, the spirit of human salesmanship lives on, no matter how outrageous the question or request. For example, Art asks the seller of a set of bongo drums if there would be a way to attach them to his grandmother’s back so that she could take them to the corner and play on the street to earn her rent money–which elicits a sincere, yet bitingly humorous response. From the entertaining auctions themselves, to Paul’s loony letters and the serious responses they provoke, LETTERS TO eBAY provides a fascinating and humourous glimpse into the strange world of eBay and those who dwell within.

Letters to Ebay Twisted and Hilarious,
If you’re looking for something weird, twisted, and hilarious to pass some down time, then pick up a copy of Art Farkas’ (pen name of Central Valley eBay enthusiast and author Paul Meadors) Letters to Ebay.
Amazon lists the book’s key phrases as “happy bidding,” “lint rollers,” “deer jerky,” and “depression glass” – fitting for this farcical, oftentimes obsessive, exploration of the virtual world of online consumerism.
Letters to Ebay is one of those books that’s just plain good to have around when there’s a possibility of a few moments down time. The letters/answers are quick reads and can be taken in small doses. Farkas knows how to shape an incredibly ridiculous question with just enough detail and earnest tone to make it believable. And the unsuspecting vendors bite, responding here with good natured sincerity, there with exasperation. The questions – funny; the real-life responses – even funnier!
Keep this book around – it’s worth a big laugh a day.
