For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions.
Heroin creates its own market.
It acts like a form of play.
Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down.
Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head,
and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her.
This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod
It's safe to say that producer Carwen, I think, is maybe feeling a little ripped off.
You tried to do some charity, but now you've seen an opportunity and you feel a bit ripped off.
Yeah, so I had a pair of the McDonald's collab with Crocs, the Grimace Crocs.
Yes, the furry ones.
The furry ones.
Very purple, had a bunch of charms of Grimace.
Now, my fault, I got the wrong size.
They're slightly too small.
I was convinced they fit my feet, but honestly, they weren't comfortable in the end because
they were too tight.
Yeah, too tight.
But these are like collector's edition.
Yeah.
People were going nuts over these.
Yeah, and I was like, I've only worn them a few times.
I could sell them.
And then I was like, we all know the hassle of Marketplace.
I'm not using trade.
I cannot be bothered. I was like, I can't't be bothered we're doing a massive clear out of the
house i just want to get rid so i wow this european boyfriend's come in well he's very
rich she doesn't need the money anymore he's like we don't need those she doesn't need a salad
because he's so loaded he's got more money than what do you do with yeah 20 bucks i'm all good
yeah exactly exactly exactly he can buy me another size.
Anyways.
And so I was like, I'll just chuck them in my pile, going to the donation place and forgot
about them.
What, like the op shop?
Yeah.
I personally support the hospice.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's nice.
There's one quite close to my house.
I scatter.
I scatter around.
Oh, do you?
So do not be aligned with any of them strongly.
Right. Okay. You never know. I'm specific about my charity. They scatter around. Oh, do you? So do not be aligned with any of them strongly. Right.
Okay.
You never know.
I'm specific about my charity.
Yeah, right.
Now I'm willy-nilly.
Cats, you get some shoes.
Yeah.
Red Cross, you get a bit of that.
Hospice, bit of that.
Salvation Army, you get a bit.
God bless.
Move on.
God bless.
Move on.
You get some shirts.
God bless.
God, they must get some people to crap their way.
God, they must get some shit. One though, eh? God, they must get some shit.
Like, there's one of the places near us,
they always ask, like, wash everything,
fold everything, if you could parcel it up,
you know, make it easy for us.
And you see people hoarding it with, like,
sacks of crumpled, unwashed, dirty shit.
Awful.
Yeah, well, I'm good.
I make sure everything's clean, fold it up nicely.
But sometimes they are in, like, rubbish bags.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because we keep the bag.
What am I supposed to put them in?
Yeah.
Anyways, so yesterday I am scrolling Facebook because, I don't know, lately I've just scrolled
Facebook a little bit more.
Oh, retro.
I know.
Retro.
Yeah.
Anyways, I flick over to Marketplace.
And what's the first thing that I see?
Oh! place and what's the first thing that i see a pair of bright purple crocs with the exact three
charms on them that mine had on them they're selling your crocs because someone bought them
from the hospice shop the op shop and now they're really they've relisted this this is what people
do they go in yeah they don't it's the same as. That's why I go to the dump shop. I don't sell things.
But don't I tell you the dump shop, the barbecue, brand new, retails for $235.
I got it for five bucks because it was dirty.
What?
Five dollars?
I got a barbecue for five.
Another barbecue.
Was this the one a few years ago?
Three or four.
You don't need that many barbecues.
It was a $500 barbecue that I got for $20 because it was dirty.
Dirty?
Cleaner.
And some rich person was just like, I don't want this.
This one I got last week was $5,
and it's one that they will buy and put on the back of their boat
so they can have a barbecue when they're out on their boat.
It's expensive.
It's stainless steel, and the salt and shit doesn't affect it.
I don't have a boat.
Well, next time you go to the dump shop,
maybe have a look out for a boat.
$5.
There was a boat there last time.
It didn't have any trailer or an engine or nothing.
Oh, bugger.
I think it might have been a decorative boat.
Yeah, right.
And so how much were they asking for these?
Okay, so it says that these were listed two days ago.
So the day before I saw them.
It says that they were listed for 60.
It's been crossed out and now it's 45.
So they're trying to make it seem like you're getting a really, really good deal.
And you're not. And they're trying to make it seem like you're getting a really, really good deal. And you're not.
And they're not, yeah.
I mean, in fairness to them, like, you had the opportunity to make a bit of money out of these.
You could have sold them for 45, 60.
I always think this, though.
When I've seen stuff of mine that I've dropped off to op shops and other shops, like designer resellers,
I'm always like, that's my fucking, I know that.
I had that rip there and that mark there this is why if you ever
do anything like you buy flights or something
expensive and you're waiting for it to come
on sale once you've bought it
you never look or keep looking
at the price because it will do you head in
it'll only make you sad
it's like buying houses you're like you just
pay whatever and never look at the thing
because it's fine you know
the thing that I find the most funny, though,
is that in the description it says,
I have worn the Crocs about two or three times,
but still in good condition.
Now, I dropped these off at the op shop.
And you said...
End of last week.
So there is no way that they have worn these.
So they are just pretending that they've worn them.
Yeah, they've looked at them and gone,
oh, yeah, worn a couple of times, but they're great.
I mean, were they wrong? Did you wear them a couple of times, but they're great. I mean, were they wrong?
Did you wear them a couple of times?
Yeah, but like in the house, so they weren't gone outside.
Okay.
Wow.
Oh, well, you missed out.
You know, there's money you could have had.
How rich is this boyfriend when she's thrown away $60?
You know what, I've still got my Grimace Crocs.
And again, I went the size that I usually am,
but I don't think it took into account the fur.
The fluff.
Which makes it smaller. And now I'm thinking. Oh, my God, I just hopped on Marketplace. I found them but I don't think it took into account the fur the fluff which makes it smaller
and now I'm thinking
oh my god
I just hopped on Marketplace
I've found them
I've got 60 bucks
they're right there
I've found them right there
with my little
sheehan
Taylor Swift charm
and everything
yeah should I
should I buy them
and then I'll resell them
and get a little bit more
and then get a bit more
just see how much
I can get for these
who is this cheeky
I love that
who is this cheeky
we're not outing them.
Fucker.
No, they're not cheeky.
They're just saying it's entrepreneurial.
It is.
It is.
Okay, they've got an Ivanka Trump bag for sale too.
Yeah.
Oh my God, really?
Which also looks like you.
They totally do go to op shops and just buy stuff that looks cool.
Good on them.
I can see.
Good on them.
Yeah.
That jacket a bit of you Sproul?
yeah it's alright it's pleather though you know me I like my animals to suffer
