eBay – the World’s Marketplace for Weird Stuff!
Bigfoot Bids on eBay to be Maid of Honour?
To kick off this blog on all things to do with eBay, thought it might be fun to look at a couple of the weird things people try to sell – sometimes successfully – sometimes not – on eBay.
Apparently, a “Hairy Man” (Bigfoot maybe?!) is bidding on eBay for maid-of-honour duties at the wedding of a young bride-to-be in Alberta, Canada.
Presumably, the young lady had either run out of local friends or decided offering the role for sale on eBay was a novel way to raise money so her best friend could make the trip from Ontario to be maid-of-honour.
I searched on eBay for this "Bigfoot" item but couldn’t find it – maybe it’s just one of those eBay myths? – anyone else had any luck?
“Holy Pan for Sale on eBay at $20,000”
Last year a Florida woman sold a grilled cheese sandwich she says had an image of the Virgin Mary on it.
Now she’s offering to sell the frying pan that made the sandwich - bids over $20,000 were made but didn’t reach the reserve price!
Did a search for this one too (just enter “holy pan” in the eBay search) but found a different frying pan (in Australia this time) also with a curious image burnt into it. Bids had only reached $26 but all proceeds are for International Red Cross so it’s in a good cause.
Anyone got any weird or funny stories about stuff people sell on eBay (but please remember to keep it relatively clean – thanks)
