That costume is so ridiculously detailed, I have trouble believing it's not just from the movie and photo-shopped into a house.

There are always a few people selling their souls or asking a generous person to "buy" their debt on ebay.

I remember hearing about how one teenage boy tried to sell his virginity on ebay until the auction got yanked.

There was also the biker who sold his ex-wife's wedding dress on eBay. He was a big fat butch hairy biker, and didn't have a mannequin, so he decided to wear the wedding dress HIMSELF and take pics in it. It attracted so much attention this guy actually got an appearance on Jay Leno, and the dress went for $13K.

LabelKing would like that, it would top off his collection of exotic skinned accessories. I hear in Australia they use kangaroo scrotums to make wallets too (I think I saw it on the discovery channel)

Inferior quality taxidermy doesn't interest me. That poor preserved octopus looks terrible. The jar looks incorrect and the fluid appears half-gone. However, I have eaten frogs that looked like that--the entire thing was cooked.

What about the auction for a used Purple Label thong? That was classic.

There was an auction for some DKNY mens leather pants. Of course, the pants weren't the draw - it was the lenghty description of how he was conned into buying said pants, and then all the reasons men in general should never bid on those pants. I think they sold for >$100 They weren't my size, otherwise I would have bid. http://www.banterist.com/archivefiles/000286.html And the Q&A following the listing is priceless. Worth reading.
