New York JWT ad exec Steve Coulson has launched the mother of all eBay ironies with his “Your Logo on my Golden Palace” bid. Poking fun at eBay’s ability to catapult absolutely nothing to fame and Golden Palace’s ceaseless appetite for all parts of the human body, the ad promises the winning bidder’s logo will be placed on a small Golden Palace which will be displayed on Steve’s desk and seen by “decision makers, media buyers and celebrities” who visit his office. Perhaps this will finally end this little mini-trend.
