Example: Moron

This genius is trying to sell his camera lens on eBay. Here's part of his ad:

"Lens comes with case and lens cap. There is a 3/8ths inch scratch on side of lens. See photo, it is in the 2 o'clock position. I do not know how this would affect the image. Bidders outside the USA to pay by Western Union or Bibpay only. BID LIKE YOU WANT IT."

That's like a personals ad saying
"i'm fat, balding, short, unemployed, and I still live with parents. HOLLER AT ME LIKE YOU WANT ME."

Notice how he uses ALL CAPS for that part where he orders you to bid on his ruined lens.
BID LIKE YOU WANT IT DAMMIT
START BIDDING AND JUST GO CRAZY AND OVERPAY, LIKE U REALLY WANT THIS PIECE OF SHIT LENS
I USED ALL CAPS TO REALLY KICK YOUR ASS INTO DOING IT

This person actually must want to come across as being difficult to do business with. He says to pay by check, and then continues, "No other payment is available NOT EVEN PAY PAL"

"Even." He's admitting that Paypal is both common and easy and that it's outlandish for him to not accept it.

I swear to god, chances are this guy is a complete waste of space.
