Description
This is a free monkey phone call from me. This is a real auction, no joke. When you pay, I will call you and make this sound "ee EEEE ee EEEE eee EEEEE"...it's kind of like a monkey shrieking sound. Not a big fat monkey..and not like a gorilla...but like a monkey that's the size of a chihuahua...you know, like that old Taco Bell dog. So this monkey sound will be like "ee EEEE ee EEEE eee EEEEE". There will be no other additional monkey sounds. However, if you want and are willing to pay an additional $10, I will make a monkey grunt sound. The monkey grunt sound will go like "ooo ooo". Imagine a monkey sitting on top of a donkey while making that sound. Why a donkey? Because monkeys on donkeys sound better.

The call will be about 1 minute. The following is a scripted call:

RING RING
Buyer: Hello?

Me: "I am super monkey and here's a monkey sound: ee EE ee EEEE ee EEE"

Buyer: Wow, this is so cool A super monkey is calling me!

Me: "oo ooo oo super monkey is on a donkey ooo ooo oo"

Buyer: Wow, a DONKEY!!!

Me: "Thank you, it has been a pleasure doing monkey business with you" (That joke about monkey business will be free!!! Get it? MONKEY business! HAHA)

Buyer: "Thank you, sir. I will buy 10 more monkey phone calls from you. Does your company have any stock? I wish to buy 10,000 shares."

End of conversation.

When you win, you have to tell me the time to call you. It has to be between 6 pm and 7 pm US Central time. You only have a one hour time frame. If this time isn't good enough, then you can request a 7 to 8 pm time frame, but you won't get the joke about it being monkey business. This offer is also only valid in the United States.

Acceptable forms of payment are cash or money order.

Here's a picture of a monkey that you should try to visualize when this phone call is made:


IMAGINE THIS MONKEY CALLING YOU!! BID TODAY!

On Mar-14-01 at 00:00:34 PST, seller added the following information:

A Special Update!

A monkey has been procured from the Nashville, TN zoo! This monkey will help me make the monkey call more life-like. You are bidding on a high quality monkey call. Not one of those low-quality generic monkey calls you see on late night infomercials.

Unfortunately, this monkey will not participate in the monkey phone call as I was unable to obtain FCC approval - its shriek violates FCC Part 15 and actually causes the disruption of other electronic devices.

Please email me at supermonkeyfromebay@yahoo.com if you have any questions on this auction.

Nashville Zoo may not necessarily exist.
