He apparently isn't too haunted by the rifle. Maybe the spirit of the dead soldier will frighten him into lowering his price.

The storage at APEX Gun Parts must look like a scene from horror movies.

Or correct his grammar

I seen this post a few months back.

He's just trying the ebay tactic of trying to sell an item with a spiced-up story to entice customers. It'd probably be more effective if he learned to use spellcheck.

I wonder what the ghost does... Talk to him? I might buy it if every time I shoot it I hear one of the following phrases:

"For mother Russia!"
"Nice shot! You deserve a vodka."
"Terrible shot! Maybe vodka will help."
"Mikhail Kalashnikov would be proud!"

Actually, I think it's more effective with the bad grammar and spelling errors. It makes the reader assume he's a rube and the uninformed reader may actually think his asking price is a bargain "get rid of it" price. Sometimes it pays to act like you're stupid -- greedy people are the easiest to con.
