    Postie came with a thin packet to sign for. It had chinese writing on the front and has come all the way from Shanghai. I signed for it, thinking that I'd not bought anything off e-bay for a while, I wonder what it could be -and I opened it to find a sleeve from what seems to be a rugby shirt!!! It had been badly cut off a silky material type shirt with a yellow and black coloured heavier fabric with the reebok logo on. I'm now sh*tting missen thinking it's some kind of message from some Chinese mafia!!!Anyone else had owt like this and should I be worried???? Why would someone send just an arm of a t-shirt through the post? Is it some kind of scam or do I need to increase my personal security? Ta Foz

    I'd be very scared if I was you.

    Definite Mafia involvement.

    Traditionally cut off the arm of a jersey and send it to their intended victim as a precursor to their assassination. I should watch out mate.

    I think the Japenese are trying to put a bet on the World Cup Rugby...

    They forgot the leg to go with the arm.</p>

    Your real names not William Hill is it?</p>

    LOL - thanks for that - I am now a quivering wreck, thinking that my card is marked and someone's after me! Wierd, you've all made me feel much better, thanks!!!!
    I think it's a premonition that we'll win tomorrow. Old chinese proverb say, receive a sleeve in the post and your football team will beat the Baggies!!! Will let you know if I'm dead or not after match tomorrow. ;-( Foz

    Now they've got your signature

    You'll either get an outstanding bill for &pound;330 for the rare world cup Japanese rugby sleeve from the shirt of former Japanese Scrum-half Wee Won Wonce or you'll be on an episode of &quot;You've Been Had&quot; featuring gullbile punters who sign for anything without question.

    Just joining in the wind up lad, although I did sign for a parcel of 12 overalls at work once and there were 2 overalls short. The company in question refused to supply the outstanding couple because I'd signed for 12 - then again, I might have just made that up.
    LOL

    If you soak the sleeve in water overnight,
