There's like 800,000 missing children , the odds are that a name WOULDN'T hit is highly unlikely


So all these random hits are for people naming a throw pillows and cabinets??? You ever sold cabinet named Greg? Why were normally priced items not also given names?

They are. Clearly you've never been to wayfair.com

ETA: See my post on page 4 for some examples.

I'm sorry but this has got to be one of the dumbest most idiotic conspiracy theories out there. Anybody with half a brain cell can look at this for a half a minute and think there's gotta be a better way using Dark Web instead of a publically traded company such as WayFair to launder money, It took me 2 seconds of a google search to find numerous examples of people just laughing at how dumb people are to believe this crap. Lets just drop this before we embarrass ourselves some more.

I’m sure you did find people laughing about it from a Google search.

I'll say it again:

So I just perused the throw pillow section at wayfair and I counted 18 that had human names at normal prices on just page 1, mostly from different sellers. I'm not gonna go through all the results since there's over 200,000 of them, but yeah, it's pretty likely

There's over 200,000 results for decorative pillows alone. Add in over 800,000 missing children, a Russian search engine called Yandex, and yes, the odds are VERY good

Impressive research skills you're displaying there.

I don't think I'm quite ready to drop it yet, but thanks anyways.

I don't buy this as child trafficking just based on this info, but would love somebody to explain what a $10k pillow is. If there's a logical explanation, lets hear it. But for them to say, well, we didn't explain it very well, we'll do better next time, is just begging for more investigation.

Ellen DeGeneres is facing criticisms over this one. She apparently bought a very expensive pillow from WayFair herself.

quote:

llen DeGeneres has been roped into a conspiracy theory that accuses Wayfair of acting as a front for human trafficking by selling pricey cabinets named after people.

The talk show celebrity was questioned on Twitter for her Wayfair collection that allegedly included a five-figure pillow but really sells for far less. Social media users questioned the talk show host and if she had any involvement with the alleged child trafficking conspiracy theory

Oops. I made an error. Ellen DeGeneres is actually selling 10,000 dollar pillows on WayFair. Or was anyways.

Say, that reminds me that Ellen was rumored to be on house arrest and appeared in one photo to be wearing an ankle monitor. Hmmmm.

I've seen that on platforms like this, it costs money to de-list items when out of stock and re-list once inventory is replenished. So to skate those fees, people will jack the price up to absurd numbers so that no one would actually buy a $10K pillow and then bring back to normal prices once you have some inventory on it



bullshite. Whenever an item is down to the last one or out of stock, every retailer I know either says 1 left or says out of stock. I’m not necessarily agreeing with anyone else in here, but you are full of shite on this point.
