You know you’ve gotten a good deal when the XBox you order on eBay comes with a pair of soiled sweatpants and a ratty old shirt. It seems Chip got this darling prize from a 100% positive feedback seller when he ordered an XBox and opened opened it to find a few treats. As one wag pointed out, it’s the “dance dance revolution accessory kit.”

This is not to say this is a bad seller — I’ve been known to wad up old newspaper or whatever — but at what point in a terrible bout of depression do your pants become packing material?
