Scary washing machine for sale (not mine)

Seriously quite a good selling plan for what sounds like a trashed washing machine...

Scary washing machine. No really, its terrifying! for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand

That's called 'creative marketing'!

Classic

Some of the comments in the Q&A are even better than the ad.

Turns out he may be an engineer or something for an outfit called "Earth Air Fire Water" I think. Pretty wacky sense of humour perhaps indicates a huge creativity. I sure hope he gets a chance to answer the remaining 150+ questions. Turns out a current affairs reporter interviewed him... I think the 5-digit site counter is going to go around the clock too.

Bugger, pity it's in NZ, would've made a great addition to my collection, Maybe with a long powercord it could agitate across the Tasman.

I've destroyed three washing machines in the last week, and spent the rest of the time shopping for a new one.

That's hilarious I like that kind of comedy.

I have just replaced my old top loader that fell through the laundry floor with a 8kg front loader and near as bad. Its shakes the laundry that much the drier fell off the wall Scared the cats here so much they all took off hit the cat flap in one go and broke it

Thinking that saddle would be a good idea so can jump on it wile in spin cycle to hold it down before it runs out the door
