Um, I believe that's "whays" (which the seller says are chromed). Maybe he meant "wheys" - sounds like a cheesy deal to me.

I had to make sure this wasn't a "the onion" parody. This has to be the worst bubba job I've seen.

I have seen one more job as bad as this one, but definitely nothing worse.
