This weird eBay seller certainly does. If you win this listing, he'll tell you all of his family's crazy doings and you can use his stories to write a best seller. Maybe I should try making a listing like this. I've got some relatives that could provide volumes worth of material for books about insane notions. The bidding is up to $103.50 from a starting bid of $1.00. If you want to use the Buy It Now feature, you can have it for $1 million. There have been 668 page views so far. Link: Weird Auction. Update: The highest bid was $181.50, but the reserve wasn't met. There were 944 visitors.

They just decided to put them up on eBay anyway and see what happens. Whatever they are, maybe they'd make good bookends. I guess being clueless pays off sometimes. This listing has six bids and has gone from $1.00 to $10.50. There have been 156 page views so far. Link: Weird Auction. Update: This one finished with six bids and a total of $10.50. There have been 318 page views.

Yep, selling the entire country. I'm wondering how the people living there feel about this. There are already 14 bids. This listing started at $1.00 and is now up to $70.00. (That's US currency. I'm not sure what kind of money they use in Iceland.) There have been 167 page views. Link: Weird Auction. Update: This listing has mysteriously disappeared from eBay. Could it be that selling countries violates their terms? Posted by KM | 12:28 AM | 2 comments Email this weird eBay listing to a friend!
