Ghost for Sale!

Have you ever wanted your very own ghost? I haven’t, but I know someone out there defiantly does. Now you can buy your very own ghost in a bottle, so it is completely safe. A man claims that he captured this dangerous ghost in one of the most haunted castles in all of England! I suppose this man has actually done us a great service by his fearless pursuit and capture of this ghost. The buyer is obviously so worried about a person releasing it back into society from its glass cage that he writes:

“!!!!WARNING!!!!

WINNING BIDDER AVOID OPENING AT ALL COSTS!!!

THE GHOST WILL ESCAPE!!!”

I guess that he can’t say that he didn’t warn you when you simply open up the bottle and release…air…back into the environment…

The same seller is also trying to put one-million ants up for adoption. So far, his campaign has only yielded 27 ant adoptions. He says there is a very bad ant colony living under his garden at his house in England. So the only way he knows how to get rid of them is to put the ants up for adoption at $2.00 a head. Good luck you sir trying to sell one-million ants.

Also on this weeks list of weird eBay items is an “Afterlife Messenger Service”. Starting at $6.99, a person can use this service to deliver a message, email, or note to anyone after you have died. They simply look through over 400 U.S., Canadian and U.K. obituaries to see if you died. Sounds like a horrible job, but a really good service if you need to send hate mail or a love note to someone you were always to afraid to when you were living.

What do you do with 15,000 Baseball Cards?

Breaking news! An eBay seller claims that a “privately owned” satellite has just sent back radio signals confirming the newest planet that has been discovered. This seller has named this promising planet, “Jambnit”! Starting for 99 cents anyone can buy property on this life sustaining planet so that one day, you may actually be able to do something on it.

Previous to starting this blog, I was unaware to how dumb/gullible/ignorant some people are. I was fairly confident that people had common sense and wouldn’t want to waste their money on such things as a….fake planet. Almost all of the items I have shared with you have had at least one bidder. And yet again, someone wants to buy a piece of “Jambnit”. I wonder how much money could go to a charity or people in need from all of worthless stuff on eBay? Just a thought.

Now that I have expressed my extreme lack of confidence in the human race, I will drift away from the totally weird stuff and move into the broader spectrum of the eBay world. Perhaps some items that have value rather than worthlessness.

I was looking around the site and came to the section on funerals, and surprisingly there are cemetery plots and caskets for sale. To me, this is a little weird. The concept of selling the place where you will lie for the rest of eternity on eBay has a fundamental flaw. I suppose someone might want to buy a casket or a place to be buried on-the-cheap, but I still think it is really odd.

The next thing that came up was 15,000 baseball cards in a wholesale section. I never saw the point of collecting baseball cards but apparently some people dedicate a good portion of their life and income to doing so. I mean seriously, what you do with fifteen-thousand baseball cards? I can’t even imagine having the time to flip through all of them! Then on top of that, having the time or energy to value, cherish, (possibly) love or play with them or what ever someone would do with them!

I do have to say though, if I had the time like someone must have to collect them, I wouldn’t spend it on buying, selling or trading. I think it would be pretty awesome to build a card castle with 15,000 baseball cards. Leave a comment with what you would do with them!
