Title: Funniest products on Amazon
Post by: Scourge of Ages on June 11, 2010, 01:59:01 pm
I work selling things on Amazon.com, and some of my fellow sellers have pointed me to these hilarious items. Remember to check user-submitted images, also-looked-at-links, and reviews.

My personal favorite: Fresh Whole Rabbit (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00012182G/ref=cm_rdp_product)
Useful!: Wolf Urine (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006IGZSM/)
For research purposes only: Uranium Ore (http://www.amazon.com/Uranium-Ore/dp/B000796XXM/)
Admit it; you need this: Electronic Yodeling Pickle (http://www.amazon.com/Accoutrements-Electronic-Yodelling-Pickle/dp/B0010VS078/)
If I could only post this in the "What do you drive" thread: JL421 Badonkadonk (http://www.amazon.com/JL421-Badonkadonk-Land-Cruiser-Tank/dp/B00067F1CE/ref=pd_sbs_t_1)
And let's finish with a good ol' fashioned internet meme: Three-Wolf Moon Shirt (http://www.amazon.com/Mountain-Three-Short-Sleeve-Medium/dp/B000NZW3J8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1276282381&sr=8-1)

And it is not only the products that are hilarious, but user comments are highly recommended read also!

If there ever would be a battle tank made by Daleks and if that wasn't it, I wouldn't know what would qualify.

Seriously, they are selling Uranium Ore in Amazon?

3.0 out of 5 stars: Great Product, Poor Packaging
This review is from: Uranium Ore

I purchased this product 4.47 Billion Years ago and when I opened it today, it was half empty.

And let's finish with a good ol' fashioned internet meme: Three-Wolf Moon Shirt (http://www.amazon.com/Mountain-Three-Short-Sleeve-Medium/dp/B000NZW3J8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1276282381&sr=8-1)

I know 5 people with that shirt, no joke.

Don't know about the wolf urine but I actually purchased bobcat urine.  Supposed to keep mice away when placed around.  Never tried it yet as we found peppermint oil does the same thing an probably smells a whole lot better.

Apparently, the Amazon reviews started the meme. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Wolf_Moon

Akin to Tuscan Whole Milk (http://www.amazon.com/Tuscan-Whole-Milk-Gallon-128/dp/B00032G1S0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=grocery&qid=1276421979&sr=8-1) (not actually from Tuscany).

I'll keep this short and sweet. We ordered one of these rabbits for our children this Easter and boy what a surprise. It is NOT a living rabbit. Someone has killed this rabbit and skinned it, I suppose for eating. Anyway, our children were traumatized and Easter is not the same holiday that it used to be for us. On the upside, we don't have to fill their Easter baskets anymore as we told them the Easter bunny was killed by Amazon.

P.S. The rabbit tasted very good.


Epic.

How the **** were they expecting them to ship a live rabbit anyway? 

Must be fake...it has to be...(the review)
