You Bought What?! 10 Extraordinarily Peculiar eBay Purchases

webupon.com — The worldwide garage sale. Some of the items are quite hilarious, some are rather interesting, and others are just plain weird. Perhaps the strangest phenomena is the ridiculous amounts of money people are willing to pay for some of this stuff.

  • Error601, on 01/02/2008, -3/+79Doesn't heads violate the Ebay TOS?
  • dr-steve, on 01/02/2008, -0/+67I sold a cardboard box on ebay. Kind of a bet. "Should I throw this box away?" "No, I bet I can sell it on ebay." I included the foam peanuts and tissue paper that came in it originally,

    I did NOT ship it in another cardboard box; brown paper wrapping was enough for this one. The buyer was actually very happy with it.

  • Hobbes24, on 01/02/2008, -2/+58hats off to the buisness man who then didn't take her up. now that's self control.

  • Scrappy1850, on 01/02/2008, -8/+55that picture was not of her. she was fat and he didn't want her ugly ass.
  • usrlocalbin, on 01/02/2008, -4/+50Do you know why that 'John F Kennedy Assassination Shooters Perch Window' is the real thing?
    Because Oswald is no where near it.

  • BowZzer, on 01/02/2008, -1/+46I've probably eaten more than $12000 in Pope Hat Doritos!
  • NateTheApe21, on 01/02/2008, -1/+44screw the girls virginity, i want a vampire killing kit!
  • phanfromcheese, on 01/02/2008, -1/+42I once saw a "bag of queef" (sic). This blissful item was captured in a ziploc bag and sealed to be savored later by a lucky bidder.
  • SpittingUpWind, on 01/02/2008, -3/+41Her ad says virgin, but her hands say crack whore.
  • Hoxie, on 01/02/2008, -5/+40In my country, they pay not so much for this one.

    Maybe .75 cents to lick *****.
  • Derfy, on 01/02/2008, -6/+40That wedding dress one is probably the funniest thing I've read all day. Thanks for the laugh!
  • SeriusBlac, on 01/02/2008, -1/+30He didn't take her up on her offer after donating her the money??? There's no way I believe that.
  • WyldeJ, on 01/02/2008, -0/+28Bargain.
  • inactive, on 01/02/2008, -1/+27How much did it go for?
  • epyon180, on 01/02/2008, -0/+24Probably through all of the major news sites that were reporting on the story.
  • jun2san, on 01/02/2008, -0/+22wow....only on digg will we ever see this comment
  • inactive, on 01/02/2008, -1/+22404'd
  • piesforyou, on 01/02/2008, -0/+20It works. Look at that, they just got their URL on digg for free.
  • jonshipman, on 01/02/2008, -1/+20the links expire after so long
  • ComradeGoby, on 01/02/2008, -1/+20http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/bristol ...

    Working link. Not worth 10k at all.
  • yournightmare, on 01/02/2008, -0/+17According to the article they are *REAL* shrunken heads.
  • epyon180, on 01/02/2008, -8/+25http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/bristol/3429769 ...
    She really isnt worth $10,000.
  • Urusai, on 01/02/2008, -0/+17Hell, Rockefeller showered street urchins with shiny dimes and never asked for a blow job in return. A regular humanitarian, he was.
  • TriSight, on 01/02/2008, -1/+17What about lunar property? I can remember when the guy was selling them in lots of like 32,000 acres for $20. I bought it just for a nice novelty to hang on my office walls, then he decided to sell the plots for 1 acre for $20, so I decided to sell what I had and made $300.00 off an original purchase of $20.

    Heh, I wonder how many people actually think they own a part of the moon.
  • inactive, on 01/02/2008, -0/+16Where is the monitor-less iMac?
  • adml_shake, on 01/02/2008, -0/+16You're on digg....people just assume.
  • mlfoley, on 01/02/2008, -0/+16A shrunken head is a sound investment.
  • Hoogs, on 01/02/2008, -3/+19Xbox LIVE.
  • yournightmare, on 01/02/2008, -1/+16Dude, just go to the Moonlight Bunny Ranch in Nevada if you're that hard up. You'd spend less money and the whores are a lot hotter than that busted chick.
  • obliviousfool, on 01/02/2008, -0/+15#7, the vampire killing kit, is actually what it claims to be. These are generally late 19th century artifacts. They peaked in popularity with the popularity of Bram Stoker's book. I've seen a couple different ones, so there doesn't seem to be one mass-produced-approved-by-the-pope model. It's an odd antique novelty, but it isn't something this guy just made up to sell on e-bay.
  • jun2san, on 01/02/2008, -1/+16Well, Homer sold his soul for a donut.
  • LiquidIse, on 01/02/2008, -2/+16http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/bristol ...
    Would you?
  • johnnick, on 01/02/2008, -0/+13Proof (as if more were needed) that PT Barnum was right.
  • stefpet, on 01/02/2008, -2/+15Excellent marketing by the online casino! Not only were they featured on every news website all over the planet because they bought the sandwich - now they got half the Digg population searching the net to find out their name as well.
  • Christbait, on 01/02/2008, -0/+13Nah.. maybe a hand job and we'd call it her end of the deal done.
  • dr-steve, on 01/02/2008, -0/+13Somewhere around $5, including a couple of bucks for shipping. I'll never get rich selling boxes on eBay, I guess. At least not without the Virgin Mary on the UPS shipping label.
  • UtopiaInTheSky, on 01/02/2008, -3/+16*were.
  • gak001, on 01/02/2008, -0/+12Well, that's probably not a picture of her and I'm pretty sure that the article is incorrect. According to this BBC article, the winner did go through with taking her virginity. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/bristol ...
  • Kanaka, on 01/02/2008, -1/+13I don't think the guy pitied the virgin girl, she was probably just too ugly
  • BagginsBoy, on 01/02/2008, -0/+12Would anybody else have bought the shrunken heads for 25 bucks? I sure as hell would have. Just to say I had one.
  • MisterShak, on 01/02/2008, -0/+12I would love to sell my virginity on eBay... sadly probably no one would bid =(
  • qualish, on 01/02/2008, -0/+11This guy's desperation is palpable.
