3-year-old bids $12,000 in online auction
Pipi Quinlan, 3, of New Zealand had a lot of fun online while her parents were taking a nap. Her mother had left her computer logged on to an auction site, so the budding techie bid about $12,000 for a gigantic piece of construction equipment. Her mom received an email informing her that she was the proud new owner of a Kobelco digger, and would she please pay up.
Pipi had only learned to use the computer the previous week, according to the BBC. Fortunately for mom and dad, the seller is not forcing them to pay. The really odd part of the story: the little girl doesn’t even like trucks that much. According to her mother, she’s a bit of a girly girl.
