Strictly following the *no nipple* rule, and what you think is side boob is actually fabric, so please, no one get too excited.

It's all in the *clean fun* of the BangerJay bobblehead.

....and yes, it's a real thing that really is for sale (the bobblehead, of course).

Not through Pinside. There's really not a good way to do that here.

International shipping is available if purchased through our web site.

I know it's been brought out a few times. The only time I've had the pleasure was when Jay tried to traumatize my children at the cosplay contest at MGC.

Apparently a moderator thought it was a fake ad and took it down. The ad was put back up, but the picture of my wife was removed. If anyone is wondering, it was a rated PG pic. I'm not going to post it again since there seems to be an issue with it for reasons I can not
comprehend.

My experiment with selling stuff on Pinside has left me a bit bewildered. I posted a pic of my wife instead of a pic of the BangerJay bobble head because those pics already exist in another thread. Anyone looking to buy this product already knows what it looks like and people who don't want to see it wouldn't have to be subjected to it again in the ad. In place of the BangerJay pic I decided to put a pic of my wife. She's easier on the eyes, IMHO.

My attempts to make the ad different and quirky, i.e. - eye catching, were obviously misunderstood by the moderators and action was taken without any questions being asked first.

I see no rules that were broken, however.

OK, I feel better. Carry on Internet.

Terry.

dont worry about it. Pretty typical here that a few of the mods tend to react swiftly to remove, edit, and delete content that even remotely could possibly in some realm be against the TOS in their interpretation of it.

We need Blondetall back to help keep things calmed down and more level head prevailing. She has been missing/behind the scenes and always seemed to be the voice of reason in these situations.

edit: to be clear, this is NOT bagging on moderators or criticizing them publicly. Just a comment on the recent way moderation has shifted and letting Terry know not to fret/ it is not just him...

The ad was mistakenly identified as a fake/test ad in error--it was not anything malevolent. I attempted to restore it when I found out about it, but some of the data was already missing. Terry is welcome to add the info back into the ad. Sorry for the disruption, folks.

When I looked at the ad I couldn't tell what was being offered. I think it would have been less confusing if the title said Bangerjay Bobbleheads and the photo had the product for sale prominently displayed.

I know I will be in the minority on this one but I feel the marketplace isn't the place to be clever or funny (within reason of course). Show the item for sale and give a good description for everyone who isn't on the inner-pinside social network.

I agree with both of you guys. I couldn't tell what the hell was going on and I was actually up late working when I noticed it. This is not coming out of left field and the pic attached was well interesting.....

Here is the "ad." Terry just made it official by placing it in the marketplace. Then all else ensued and Terry's pic was taken down. Now we're all left with Borat over here

Exactly why my business sensibilities don't do well here on Pinside.

Any advertising I have ever done has been irreverent and off the cuff. At 54 years of age I really don't see that changing.

Forceflow has been great at communicating with me, btw. The actual mod who took it down without inquiring first has been dead silent though.

I’m selling a bobble head created in my likeness of me in a borat suit.
