I just read this eBay sellers description of Ian Fleming's novel Live And Let Die: http://cgi.ebay.co.u...&category=27327

Surely some mistake.... :)

HeHe, nice one Coop.
You can tell the seller hasn't read it. Perhaps somone asked them to sell it for them and they only gave them the pictures and not the book itself. Surely that way they would have then been able to read the blurb/plot synopsis?

I think they are selling the book, LALD. But I don't think they have read it, thats why they put the movie description as the description. This person (seller) clearly isn't a Bond fan.

Why else would he be willing to part with it...
