Ebay auction fun

[Locut0s]

When bored it's sometimes fun to see what people put on ebay at ridiculously high prices. I used to do this all the time but haven't done so in a while. All you have to do is search for things priced 1 million dollars and up containing words that catch all auctions:

http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=the%2C+this%2C+that%2C+and%2C+or&_in_kw=2&_ex_kw=&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_okw=the%2C+this%2C+that%2C+and%2C+or&_oexkw=&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=1000000&_udhi=100000000&_ftrt=901&_ftrv=1&_sabdlo=&_sabdhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=200&_fpos=Zip+code&_fsct=&LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=50

Here's a good one:

"
I know this item is not worth $1 Million but I put it for sale at that price because I want to see if there is any rich person out there that would spend the money on something like this, during tough economic times and I'm facing losing everything I have to before I get tons of questoins that is why I put this price on it. Because I need the money and I have nothing to lose, its better then playing the lotto, plus whoever buys it would get lots of air time becuase it would make a good story for the news. Will hand deliver anywhere in the world, including Mount Everest if you really want me to earn my moeney.

I thought their listing price wasn't tied to auction price?

You can have ENOHPI.COM (IPhone backwards) for just 1.2 million!

Idk When I listed my Blackberry 9700 it was a free listing since I just opened my account

What about it. I don't see anything that jumps out immediately.

looks like it got relisted or something. The real auction was like $5000 last I saw 24 hours ago. basically something about someone breaking into xfx to steal one and xfx sending out a mass email saying someone stole something from them and they are gonna get prosecuted - but many people are calling this shens and saying it's a viral marketing campaign to buy it.

more details in the video card section, look for XFX security something
