    LONDON -- Three-year-old Jack Neal loves cars: so much so, that while his mother's back was turned he bought a Barbie-pink Nissan Figaro for nearly $16,000 on eBay.



    Gay?

    "I had just come off the computer and I thought I had logged off, I came out of eBay," his mother Rachel told the British Broadcasting Corp. on Monday.

    "Jack jumped on the chair, (went) straight in, found the page and bought the car." Unable to read, the youngster likely used the "buy it now" option to make the purchase.

    The first time the Neals, from Sleaford in eastern England, knew of the sale was when they received an e-mail from auto dealer David Jones, who thought he had made his first Internet sale.

    Jones, from Worcestershire in central England, saw the funny side and said he will not hold the Neals to their purchase. The car will be re-listed later.

    "I've got a 2 1/2-year-old son myself and I don't think he would be able to do this, although he's bright," he said.




    Jack denied all culpability.


    Asked if he had made the purchase, he simply squirmed and muttered, "No..."
     
  7. There is an option to log in to ebay and have it logged into your computer for one full day without having to enter any login details. The credit card data stays on there, once entered, so buying something is just a matter of "click".

    I think you need to enter your password before you buy something though. Smart kid anyway.

    I don't know if I believe that or not. My niece is four and she wouldn't know how to do that, even with me already signed in.

    I think the mom wanted it and came to her senses and blamed the kid.
     
  12. I'm thinkin of having kids for that same reason. I tend to have a need for scapegoats often.

    I think that's a pretty funny story.

    And the fact that a three year old knows how to use ebay, I think is kinda smart.
