UKNM: Quixell - QVC on the Net?

[Peter Beech]

Little to do with marketing, but funny.


Quixell's diversification holds no bounds - they're becoming the Home

Shopping Channel of the Net, which I guess might be informative about the

UK Net audience. Check out these offers :


24ct Men's Silk Finished Ring With Lions Seal

<http://www.quixell.com/os/itemhtml/ht516238.shtml?cm1029>


24ct Men's Crossover Horses Head Ring

<http://www.quixell.com/os/itemhtml/ht516239.shtml?cm1029>


24ct Men's Ring With Scenic Frieze Of Wild Cats

<http://www.quixell.com/os/itemhtml/ht516240.shtml?cm1029>


I wonder - Will Lee be wearing the 'Crossover Horses Head' knuckleduster?

or, wild man Stefan be seen sporting the 'Scenic Frieze'? ...


Steve has been frantically bidding for the 'breadmaker' but lost out at the

eleventh hour.


What are you people bidding for in the Quixell auction mania - please no

serious responses about PCs and peripherals, I get what auctions are about,

but there seems to be a wider phenomenon at work here - more akin to buying

crap that you don't want in the sales just because you can.


I saw last week that a printer was going for more than you can get it for

on the high street - is it bidding fever?


Thoughts on the psychology of auctions
