Given that the thumbnail implied it dealt with purchasing firearms from an online auction site, I watched the opening few seconds which comprised a skit in which two people pinned down in a firefight call up the 'Friendly online arms dealer' and after some haggling ("All currencies accepted, but no credit cards.") results in the purchase of some firearms at half-price in return for "...a small favour..."
