He wants to swap a what for a what?
This is certainly one of the more unusual swap deals we’ve seen here on JOE.
Longford resident John Reilly posted the ad you see below on Adverts.ie a few weeks back, but it’s only coming to our attention now.
John would like to sell the following item…
John wants to sell a what, sorry?
Oh. A bulletproof vest. OK.
In return, John Reilly is looking for one of four things; 1) €250, 2) a “PA system”, 3) a “cutaway acoustic guitar”, or 4) an “air rifle”.
So many questions John, so many questions. Let’s get started…
- Why did John have a bulletproof vest in the first place?
- Was John expecting to get shot at some point?
Where did John get the bulletproof vest?- Why does John want a “cutaway acoustic guitar”?
- Is John planing on learning the guitar?
- What songs does he want to learn on the guitar?
- Does he know any guitar chords already or would he be starting the instrument from scratch?
- Is the air rifle to ward off potential assailants?
- Are those John’s bedsheets?
Anyway, thanks to the phenomenally-named Chase Nova for spotting this ad and sending it into us. You can check out John’s ad in full by clicking here.
If you can shed any light on John and his mysterious bulletproof antics or if you have a photo, video or story you think we’d like, send it to us on Twitter, Facebook or [email protected].
