I saw a neat little item on eBay, but didn't want to pay a lot for it. So I made a really low-ball offer to the seller, expecting him or her to come back with a counter offer. To my surprise, they accepted! This got me thinking... for what I offered, the seller surely couldn't have shipped the item all the way to Idaho. I even started to feel kind of bad about it, knowing that this person probably went to the post office and paid everything I had given them just to ship it.
But then, the package arrived. I was relieved a bit, but hilarity ensued:

The package was completely enveloped in old prepaid postage envelopes. Hundreds of them. Some as small as 1½¢
I can only imagine the look on the post office attendant when it was dropped off at the counter. :lol:
Here's one of the 1½¢ guys, and a super cool holographic space station with docking shuttle:
