Local man sells own forehead on eBay.

It might look like an Onion headline, but some folks are prepared to sell anything.

HA! That’s awesome.

:adds this to, “Shit I Should Have Thought Of” list:

At least it isn’t permanent!

I don’t know… will he know details about the product so that when people ask him about what’s on his forehead he can give a spiel or something? Otherwise this is incredible. I take it then that this is legal by eBay’s standards.

Anyboy wants to advertise on my left butt cheek, let me know and we can negotiate terms. Sorry, but I’m reserving the right one for public service announcements.

There now are some 50 auctions from copy cats in similar vane. That’s lame.

Bah, call me when they’re selling prosthetic foreheads.

I always thought a really funny tattoo (but just dumb enough for me not do want to do it) would be a small dotted rectangle with the words:

YOUR AD HERE
$20

Well, hell, everybody wants big prosthetic foreheads to wear on their real heads.

Double bah. Call me when they’re giving head.

What an excellent idea! My name is Simon White, and I’m the owner of “White’s Pride” bakeries. We’ve been looking for a way to increase our visibility, in the community and what better way to get the word our about our fluffy loaves, delicious fruit pies, and delectable cream puffs than with a “White’s Pride” forehead tattoo? Ideally, we could stock him with some free samples, so when someone asks him about it, he could offer them one of our hand made, kettle boiled bagels! Again, what a fantastic, carefully thought through idea!

There’s a promo on somewhere for a Fear Factoresque new show with the tag line “Apparently you can put a price on human dignity”. Talk about old news :rolleyes:

Wow, I really wish I would have thought of that first. The auction is at 22,000 right now and with the media coverage this guy is getting, that forehead is getting more and more valuable by the minute.

That’s a lot of money I wish I had.

I think Steve O from Jackass fame was ahead of you : he has a tattoo on his butt-cheeck saying “Your name here”.

Cool! Then we can all go about looking like extras from This Island Earth!

I think I’d rather have a rock to wind a string around.

His web site sells ads for $200 per day.

He’s currently running 4 small ads, and one big banner ad.

Not too shabby.

If he can string this thing out for a month or so, he’s got a nice little down payment.

I’d hold out for someone with a bigger forehead. Like the bumper off a Chevy type forehead. Packer fan type forehead. Herman Munster type. Ya know? That kid looks like he could barely fit 12 point type.

The winning bid was $30,100. Not too shabby (assuming it’s genuine).

The winning bidder’s past wins include a $10 knife, a $13 guitar pickup and a $100 cell phone.

Something tells me he might not come through.
