Sounds like one I remember - and yes, he sold a short bit of old rope he'd found on the beach. Only problem is that the winning bid didn't cover his postageA few years back there was a TV programme about eBay etc., and they tested out the theory that 'almost anything is sellable on eBay'. One example I recall is that they listed "a few short bits of old rope", or something like that, and got several bids!
.... which is, of course, why the TV programme did what it did. In fact, I have a vague recollection that the program may have been titled (or, at least, that bit of it 'subtitled') "Money for old rope" !Like sailors of old, and the origin of the saying "money for old rope".
That sounds very much like it - in which case my recollections were not as bad as I feared!Ah, possibly this one from 2005
The Money Programme's EBay: Money for Old Rope? was broadcast on BBC Two on Friday, 25 February, at 1900 GMT.
I've found www.parcelmonkey.com useful for sending items that would otherwise be not viable via the post office, e.g. wheels, tyres etc,
