5.) Fossilized Poop
I really don’t know what type of witty description I can give this item. It is fossilized poop, I think that pretty much covers it.
4.) Justin Timberlake’s French Toast
IHOP could quintuple it’s prices today and still not make as much money for a slice of French Toast as radio station, Z-100. That is because they managed to sell Justin Timberlake’s half eaten slice of French Toast on eBay for over $3000.00! The buyer was a young N-Sync fan who said she would most likely have it freeze dried and leave it in her drawer.
3.) 8 Pounds of Cereal Marshmallows
The following is an actual Amazon review:
“It all started when the bags were emptied on the kitchen table. The mountain of endless marshmallows was so tall you had to stand up to see the person across from you. Everyone in the room thought we had just given our friend the best birthday present he could have asked for. After more than ten minutes the tears still trickled down his face, tracing and re-moistening the nearly dried salt trails along his cheeks. His girlfriend knew better. She and I had discussed the gift a few days before when she vocalized her reservations, “he doesn’t moderate well, he won’t stop until they’re all gone.” I was naive, I saw no problems – it’s just a bunch of marshmallows, right? I didn’t realize the door I’d unlocked for my friend and what demons lurked on the other side.
Everyone was having fun, all of us laughing and shoveling handfuls of the soft, dried sugar lightning bolts and other fun, brightly colored shapes into our smiling faces. Nobody noticed the pile he’d crushed in front of him. When we heard his gigantic snort and saw him sit up in his chair the room erupted with excitement, one guy even laughed so hard he doubled over coughing and nearly puked. We all just assumed he snorted because he was laughing too hard. We were wrong.
In the days after the party he stopped returning my calls and replying to my text messages. His girlfriend saw less of him as time went on. He would show up at her place at odd hours, disheveled and looking as though he hadn’t slept for days. More upsetting for her than the smudged rainbow of colors around his lips and nostrils was the trembling of his hands and tracks on his arms. By the time she finally found the words to say, he was gone before she drew the courage to address what he had become. She didn’t see or hear from him again until I tracked him down several weeks later. I found him in a house on the wrong side of town with some unsavory characters who had been following him and “the medicine bag” around the sugar scene for the last few weeks. My friend had developed a reputation and become a celebrity of sorts in this circle but only because of what was in the bag we’d given him, the same bag that was destroying him. His new friends only knew him as The Doctor. The first attempt to bring him back didn’t end well and I was thrown out of the house onto the porch with my own blood on my freshly torn shirt after showing him a picture of himself (link below). The following week we orchestrated a better planned and successful intervention. He has been rehabbing at a gym across town and shopping at the local farmer’s market over the last month to keep himself clean. Despite a few bumps in the road, his recovery is looking promising and we are supporting him as best we can.
Be careful who you give these to.”
2.) Naming Rights For Another Human Being
Would you legally change your name to Goldenpalace.com for $15,000? That is what 33 year old mother of 5 Terri Ilagan (now Goldenpalace.com) decided to do when she auctioned her naming rights on eBay. It hasn’t stopped there either, after seeing this auction online a whole slew of other people have auctioned the right to name their baby online and Goldenpalace.com has named several of them, you guessed it, Goldenpalace.com! Richard Rowe, GoldenPalace.com chief executive officer, said in a statement. “You can expect more baby-naming in the future as I am sure other people will follow suit and be looking to auction off the naming rights to their children.”
1.) A Man’s Life
After a divorce left Ian Usher completely unhappy and wanting to move on, he did the unthinkable; he auctioned his life on eBay. His auction included his car, his home, an introduction to his friends, and more. The final price ended up at $399,300.00 and Ian used the money to travel and complete 100 goals he wanted to accomplish before he died. His bucket list took 2 years to complete, and after completing all 100 items Ian also wrote a tell all book called “A Life Sold.”
