I cant believe that someone bought a container of wind, from Hurrican Frances, off ebay for $10!!!! That really is one of the silliest things ive ever heard lol. Have you heard of or seen anything this silly or worse that someone has actually paid money for? Let me know lol. Thanks:)

People amaze me. Ebay has sold so many stupid things to people. Wind, rain and snow. Ash. Even sold prayers. People do bid and buy. I have no reasonable answer to such madness.

That's almost as bad as the guy who paid for a grilled chese sandwich or a piece of toast or whatever the heck it was, because he thought he saw the face of Jesus, or The Virgin Mary in it. Some people are just too eager to throw their money away.

lol some people obiously have nothing better to do with their money. I do remember seeing something about a woman selling a piece of toast that "showed" a face in it. I wonder if someone would buy my nail clippings. lol

Wow. I am not even sure what to say. The only positive thing I can think is, maybe they did do it to rebuild. Otherwise, that is just pure craziness. And I am not sure which is worse, somebody thinking to sell it, or someone actually buying it. Apparently some people just have entirely too much expendable cash. LOL

Thats what I think, but unfortunatly I doubt selling a couple of containers of wind is going to help them all that much. I think its people trying to cash in in anyway they can. Thanks for your response.

My question is what sort of container did they use.... if they used tupperware they could have lost money on the deal, some of those containers are really expensive LOL.

Don't you think that some people really have more money than sense , Ross said that someone was selling a corn flake because it was a weird shape , I am not going to study every corn flake in the house in case its worth money lol xx

You mean all I had to do was buy some containers and put them on ebay for sell? I went through Francis...even found a misplaced turtle that day and we named her Francis. LOL I can't believe some of the things people will buy on ebay!

Hope that they had alot of those containers and sold them for money to rebuild with. That is the only way I would think that it would turn out to be a worthwhile thing. Those grilled cheese things would be the silliest for me.

Wow, that's great. People always buy silly things off ebay. I remember one time seeing a stump for sale on ebay (just a regular ole tree stump) and someone bought it for a couple hundred bucks. My friends and I joked we wanted to sell pure West Virginia air since it seems that the silly things sell the most.
