eBay, the internet flea market is filled with many different things that people can buy, but if you browse long enough, you'll soon find that there are tons of crappy items that some people are selling. By crappy, I mean these items are RIDICULOUS and no one in their right mind out buy it. Yet, these ridiculous things are what get people's attention and they do end up being sold for thousands. I once searched eBay and found someone selling a pair of dirty mens underwear. These things were used, stained, and even have holes in 'em. The guy who was selling it claimed that it belonged to him when he was homeless and that this was the ONLY pair he had worn during this time. He was offering a buy-it-now price of $200.00. That was the most ridiculous thing I had ever seen.

The most ridiculous thing I've ever seen is a "ghost in a jar". The person claimed to have gone to an old building that was once an insane asylum, and he caught the ghost while he was there. I followed the auction until it ended and someone actually bought the jar for $75. Since then, I've seen several other auctions for the same thing. Some people are just plain crazy to bid on something like that.

I know, the buyers are just paying $75 for a plain glass jar. At some point they have to realize that they're being scammed.
