"Just curious, how is it possible to own or sell an entire town? "
Oh they do that now on ebay…you get the land & bldgs that come with it, surely you don’t own the people (although I kind of like that idea) 
This one is my personal favorite.
If you’ve got a slower computer, don’t even try. This guy’s background and text combination seems to play hell with slower PCs.

It isn’t so much what he’s selling as it is the long, rambling, schizoid rant he added after the item description. Use your mouse to highlight the text - it makes it much easier to read.
please post the full url… I wanna see the schizo!!
:eek:
I wonder if that guy has ever posted here?
Nope. No issues with that guy at all.
Holy Crap!
:eek:
Somebody bought it!
And the hilarious part is that they spent $7.80 for shipping and insurance! 
“And the hilarious part is that they spent $7.80 for shipping and insurance!”
Yep, but I bet some of these weird items are semi private auctions for stuff you aren’t allowed to sell on ebay. They just don’t mention the extra stuff you get…
The psycho guy’s auction has been pulled… but I have saved it for posterity:
Okay, pleeeeeeeeease tell me that guy wasn’t for real. Please? Someone?
Couldn’t be, check the location and his me page.
Has anyone else noticed that the seller interested in Michael Jackson’s friendship actually got a bid–someone paying the ungodly high Buy It Now price?

Description:
“Absolutely humongous Cheetos glob in a solid mass. This baby tips the scales at a whopping .60 ounces, and is a real abberation, see quarter for size comparison. Very Gross! This came from an ordinary bag of Cheetos brand snacks, and The Frito Lay company will pay big bucks for this item. The monster cheeto for sale is the one on the left. The normal one on the right, sadly, has already been eaten. Untouched by human hands (I’m afraid to touch it), this cheeto will cost $4.95 for priority mail, insured. Foreign bidders are welcome, but will pay higher shipping cost. Payment by PayPal.com only Please!”
I especially like how the font gets LARGER and LARGER and LARGER as get further on into the page, as if he’s going into a rage and SHRIEKING the words. Then, when it gets completely LOUD and OUT OF CONTROL, there’s a picture of Moe with a bowling bawl.
Classic!
Holy #$#&! That psycho guy could be the identical twin of a friend of mine! I have to send him this page!
Anyone got a chicken that needs tattoing?
