Girlfriends in yo sale pics. Why?
Why do dudes put their girlfriends on their bike and take a pic to use for their sale? I find it to be stupid. Especially if they're ugly or look like they need to be in a field.

Just send them a message and either ask what they're selling, or offer them $5 for the girl to come over to your house and service you.

Using an ugly chick is dumb. But a few years ago I remember seeing a pair of racing gloves for sale on eBay where the sellers main photo was of his GF holding her boobs with the gloves on. I dont know if he made any more money because of it but it definitely got a lot of people to look at his item and it seemed like a smart move.

In most cases it's "look everyone, I have a GF"..........leftover chip on their shoulder for not having any GF's when they were back in hs

If they are hot it's a perfect sale tactic.

Sex sells no matter if you want to over-analyze it or not

why do it in ads, because people look at it. i agree some of them are stupid and it seems "this is the only pic I have of the bike/car/whatever so i'll use it. the ones I like better are boat for sale ads with beer bellied bubba's in the ad fishing or just lounging in the boat. yeah that's gonna help you. |
