The Something Store

Pay 'em $10, and they'll send you something.

"It may be something you need, something you want or something you desire." Or it may not be.

"Your something will most likely be brand new." Or maybe it'll be a used piece of junk.

Some of the things it definitely won't be: alcohol, body parts, cable descrambler, drugs, endangered species, miracle cure, pyrotechnic device, brass knuckles.

Hell, I'm going to undercut them. Pay me $9, and I'll send you something! It might be an empty box, or it might not be...

I'll do you one better. Send me $8, and I will send you something (most likely a card thay reads "Thanks for the $8")

I like how the list of what they won't send includes "endangered species," which implies that they may send you non-endangered species. Maybe I'll finally get that pony....
