There are an abundance of auction websites out there, but only one really springs to mind (Well, 2 if you count .com) Yep, that's right, eBay. Now, you'll generally find two types of sellers. Those that sells items (I.e. Finished games) because they want to get rid of them, or they want to make a quick bit of cash. Then there are the stupid people that sell everything they can think o on eBay, such as unfinished Pop tarts and that old pair of boxer's that you just can't throw away. Nutters, the lot of them.

So then, there must be a good accumulation of crap sold on eBay. Such as the PS2 Box that was sold for over £200, the bloke that tried selling his wife and the shady-looking man selling his soul. Very interesting, indeed. Therefore, I feel it is my duty to, er, well, to enlighten you with some of the more peculiar things sold on eBay.

*Note: These are fictional items. :D



Item Number: 3543784609

USED CONDOM, EXCELLENT CONDITION! L@@K!

£0.01

Note: Not suitable for people with strawberry allergies.

I accept PayPal and cash in the post.

If the bids reach over £0.10, I'll even throw in a new Condom, unused! This would normally cost £1+!!!!!!!!!!

P+P is £0.50"

Mint condition loaf of bread!

£0.59

"A mint condition loaf of bread, still Hovis factory sealed. Comes with shopping receipt, plastic bag and a small slab of butter.

We can only hope that such items never grace the auction site that is eBay. For now, just laugh at people that sell anything, even the small minute things, on eBay.
