Zappos $50,000 T-Shirt
Shoe seller Zappos.com has come up with a unique stunt to prove the popularity of their store. They are selling a $50,000 limited edition "Cease and Desist" t-shirt which comes with a guarantee by Zappos to permanently disable a significant other`s Zappos.com account for life. The "Cease and Desist" t-shirt will be personally hand-delivered by a member of the Zappos Customer Loyalty Team. The listing promises that the rep will also be a shoulder to cry on for up to one hour for your spouse and will "be happy to frolic in a field of daisies with you or do anything that is mutually agreed upon to not be morally or ethically objectionable."
The shirt isn't much of a permanent deterrent. The first disclaimer says that Zappos is not responsible if your significant other creates another account using a different email address. But you can get your money back if you are permanently divorced or separated within 365 days.

$10k Hat Jan 7th 2009 9:17PM
Wow, Do i have a deal for you. I am offering (for a limited time only) a chance for you, yes you, to purchase this 10k dollar hat. And when you do I personally (not some no name rep) will come hang with you for a whole day. And as an added bonus for all beautiful women over the age of 18 i will do things that are morally and ethically questionable. So you better act fast, supplies are limited to one hat per day (obviously).Thank you for your support. Oh and the 10k will also include a promise not to sell your significant other anything, under any email address.
