I'm the seller of the graphics card on Bassett road in Remmers. I'll post it to you for $100

 

 

That would be best case but the seller emailed me at 1:45 so I'm guessing its not actually you?

 

 

 

 

It's not me mate! I'd treat my customers better!

 



You should have written:

If I was the seller....

Didn't Bassett Road have a rather serious firearms incident back in the early 60's?

I've just been to Bassett Road. No graphic cards to be seen anywhere.

Yep - I remember that - the famous Bassett Road machine-gun murders. And I remember the name Ronald Jorgensen.

 

Just googled and found all this.

Bassett Road is bending
Under its own weight
Shining like a strip
Cut from a sheet metal plate
'Cause it's just been littered with GPUs.

Very lucky to have got away with that - it’s a dodgy-as area. 😀
