Did you have a Lite-Brite toy set as a kid? A lot of us did. Did you ever do anything like this with it? This rendering of "The Last Supper" is 5' x 10' and has 124,418 Lite-Brite pegs. It is being recognized by Guinness World Records and by Ripley's Believe It Or Not. Click over and take a look at the weird eBay auction. There are more pictures and details about the artwork.

Aliens have altered the paint on the outside of this weird eBay seller's home in order to send us a message. Just take a look at the paint chip that fell off of his house. Soon the aliens will have their own eBay accounts and will be creating weird eBay listings of their own.

This seller has done something illegal. What? You can find out if you're the winning bidder. That's right. The weird eBay item for sale here is the seller's confession to some illegal activity.
 This weird eBay listing currently has 3,111 views and 11 bids. It's up to $20.00 from a starting bid of $0.99. Link: Weird Auction. Update: This one ended with 6,529 views, 31 bids and a total of $100. I'm guessing that this weird eBay auction didn't end well for the seller since the winning bidder is now no longer a registered user.

Yep, that's right. There are fish in the toilet tank. Every time you went to the bathroom, there'd be someone right at your back, staring at you. Could you go with someone watching? And imagine the plight of the poor fish! It would get mooned over and over. Every time it just started to get comfortable, there's be another huge mass looming over it, plopping down right beside it, narrowly missing it. If you get this toilet, don't ever look back at the fish. The site of a fish that's gone blind or insane from repeated visual abuse is just heartbreaking.

It's a vacation shellabration. The purveyor of weird stuff sold on eBay has been on vacation in Cape Cod. Available for your pleasure is her collection of seashells collected while frolicking on the beach. I assume it will be your responsibility, if you win, to arrange them in a smiley face or a heart or a silhouette of big foot. Whatever you prefer.

This seller found Big Foot in his toaster. Take a close look at the picture. See the big guy right there in the middle? Of all the Big Foot sightings we've all heard about, it's about time we had one that was edible.

According to the seller, this dead faerie was found in the woods. There is even a picture of it lying on the forest floor. The listing names the type of faerie. (Did you know there was more than one kind?) It also tells you how to attract faeries. This could be useful information if you've always wanted your own faerie.

The seller says that he (or she) found this cross in a bag of Lays. The seller also insists that the chip has not been altered. What do you think? Divine intervention or did someone at the chip factory cut a sample from the potato before it was cooked?

This seller says she's a college student trying to make a little extra money by selling her well-worn flip-flops. She says she walks to school in 110 degree heat, uphill both ways, carrying an 80 pound backpack. She goes on to describe the massive blisters on her feet. (Fortunately there are no pictures of them.)

The listing is for this guy's hair. If you win, he'll cut it off and send it to you. Maybe your own shower drain doesn't collect enough hair and you need to add some more to it. If so, this is for you. (He does say he's sending any money he makes to charity, so this listing is for a good cause as well as just being a funny eBay auction.)

Thirsty? Too bad! You'll have to buy yourself a bottle of Coke elsewhere. This funny eBay auction is for a sack full of just bottle caps.
 This listing currently has 661 views and 7 bids. It's up to $10.00 from a starting bid of $0.99. Link: Weird Auction. Update: Strange auctions occasionally get canceled by eBay. This was one of the unfortunate ones. It must have broken one of their rules.

It's been sprayed with lacquer, so I'm assuming that it's bug-free. We'll hope it's bug-free. If you win this auction and your mail carrier has red welts all over when he/she delivers it, you might want to consider sending it back unopened.
