What is the weirdest thing ever sold on eBay for a lot of money?
Yesterday, I heard someone sold a ghost for $15,000. A few weeks ago, someone sold an old cheese sandwich for big buck$, too!

:crazy:

What do you know that has sold on this site that was totally weird and unexpected-and, made an outrageous amount of money for the seller?

Maybe we could all put stuff on that site and make some real serious money, too.

What do you think?

:D

1. A monkey phone call
The winner had the guy selling call him and act like a monkey for one minute. It went for a fairly high price.

2. Ever get the feeling we're in the wrong business?
Why the hell aren't I out there right now, selling demonically possessed cheese sandwiches?

4. I remember some guy selling an ass-whupping
The highest bidder would get to have his ass kicked by the guy on ebay. I don't know how that turned out.

Also, a piece of breakfast cereal that resembled ET sold for $600. Saw that last week on Oddball.

And you can buy bull semen, if you are so inclined.

6. Here are the strangest things I've seen --
1) A houseboy for sale. I think it was $50,000. I wondered: who was selling this person?

2) A kidney. Still inside the seller, but they were willing to sell it to anyone who was willing to pay. I think it was $15,000.

3) A baby. I'm sure this was a joke. It was pulled shortly thereafter.

9. Really?
You may be correct. I heard a casino bought it. What would they be doing with an "alleged" ghost, anyway?

:shrug:
