Top 10 Weirdest Things Ever Sold On eBay.

2007-08-17T20:44:00.000-07:00

Perhaps you've heard stories of people auctioning off strange items on eBay, like the homely kid who put his virginity up for bid or the bald guys who offer their own heads as advertising space. But those are nothing compared to some of the items that have made their way onto eBay's digital auction block.
Here are ten of the weirdest things ever to appear on eBay. To qualify for this list, the item or items must have received at least one bid, proving the point that no matter what you have to sell, somewhere there is a buyer for it.

10. Item #191367029: The Internet
If people can sell plots of land on the moon, then why can't someone sell the Internet? Someone did just that, for the bargain asking price of $1 million. Of course, it was all just a gag and it's unlikely that this Pay Pal transaction ever went through. But still, it would have been the deal of the century-the buyer was even throwing in free Internet access.

9. Item #277481422: UFO Detector
A prototype manufactured by a Brazilian company, this modified magnetometer is supposed to pick up UFO activity and was proven to work when red and orange balls of light appeared in the skies over Sao Paulo. Unfortunately, it wasn't 100% guaranteed due to the fact that "the propulsion systems of UFOs are not the same." Why would the seller want to part with such a unique item? It's okay-he had two. Final sale price: $135.03.

8. Item #248619068: The Meaning of Life
Someone finally figured it out, and they put it up for sale on eBay. Even with eight bids this incredible find didn't fetch much, but it was probably the best $3.26 the winning bidder ever spent.

7. Item #1178647016: Russian Test Space Shuttle
This one-of-a-kind item was once offered by a Russian company for $2 million, but was posted on eBay for "a fraction of that." It's not known how much they wanted for the scaled-down Bor-5 VKK spacecraft, because the reserve price was never reached. Bidding topped out at $25,200, but perhaps it was the $5,000 shipping price that scared off potential buyers.

6. Item #2961640885: Vampire Killing Kit
The stylish vampire hunter would love this late 1800s European "vampire killing kit," which included a crossbow with four silver-tipped arrows, an ebony wood stake, a large bottle of holy water and various surgical instruments, among other things. A solid mahogany wood box kept the items secure until they would be needed. Final bid: $4,550.

5. Item #289158639: Real Shrunken Head
Straight from the Jivaro Indian tribe in the jungles of Ecuador to the world's largest electronic marketplace, a total of 26 shrunken heads were put up for sale. Only 7 people bid on them, with the top bidder paying just under $25. It is assumed that he or she got first choice of the heads, which ranged in color from dark brown to gray.

4. Item #2931457201: Ghost In a Jar
As the story goes, the seller of this item found a rotted wooden box while metal detecting. Inside were two glass jars and a journal. One of the jars was accidentally dropped, causing a black mist of some sort to be released. The other jar and the journal were taken home, and the seller proceeded to be haunted by something he could only describe as "The Black Thing." Wishing to pass the jar (and the ghost) on to someone else, he put the still unopened jar on eBay, insisting that only serious bidders would be considered. People must have loved the story, because there were well over 60 bids placed. Unfortunately, not all of them were serious, because the selling price topped $90 million. No word as to who finally wound up with the jar, or if they too had supernatural visitors. Since this auction, there have been many, many more "ghost in a jar" items posted on eBay.

3. Item #150118191: USAF Hughes AIM-4D Falcon Missile
Yes, a real missile was auctioned off; fortunately, it was disarmed prior to the sale. The bidding reached $3,950, but the reserve price was never met.

2. Item #127658711: Serial Killer's Fingernails
In 1979, Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris cruised southern California on a killing spree that resulted in at least five victims. And now, the fingernails of Roy Norris have been sold on eBay for only $9.99.
Taped to the back of a Christmas card, they were accompanied by a penned note from Norris himself, signed and topped off with the serial killer's black thumbprint.

1. Item number not known: "Stricken Life" Painting
A rather macabre-looking self-portrait of a man known only as "Harold," this painting is believed to be haunted. The artist was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in early 2001. Knowing that he could no longer care for his Multiple Sclerosis-stricken wife, he put a double-barrel shotgun against her head while she was sleeping and squeezed the trigger.
He then went into the den and put the shotgun in his own mouth. The house where the murder-suicide took place was eventually sold, and the new owners found the painting. Strange things started happening, such as the family dog sitting in front of the painting and howling, so Harold had to go -- on eBay, of course.

Top 5 Things You Can Do In Mozilla (And Not In IE)

2007-08-15T13:05:00.000-07:00

Top 5: Download Manager.

The download manager provides a tabular view of all of the files that you have ever downloaded, allowing you to open them without having to search around on your file system. It provides progress indicators in the window as items download.
On the topic of downloading files, IE does not begin to download a file until you have selected where to save it to, while Mozilla begins as soon as the link is clicked, downloading in the background while you are selecting a place to save it.

Top 4: Can set multiple pages as a home page.
You can set a group as your home page, so multiple pages appear when you start Mozilla. To set this, open the pages you wish in tabs, and then choose Use Current Group in the Navigator preferences panel.

Top 3: Can search bookmarks.
You can search bookmarks without having to search through your file system.

Top 2: Can set size of printed output.
This may vary based on your printer, but one can scale the printed document or fit it to the page. Useful for those sites that are just a bit too large.

Top 1: Available for more languages/locales.
Mozilla is available for many different languages, including ones you've never heard of before. IE 6.0 is currently available for 24 languages. Mozilla 1.1 or later is available for 29. Mozilla 1.0 or later is available for over 40 languages.

Top 5 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do On The Internet.

2007-08-15T02:18:00.000-07:00

Top 5: Go Back In Time.
Wonder what Yahoo looked like during the dot-com boom? Dial up the Wayback Machine, and you can view cached copies of popular Web sites dating back to 1996. For quick nostalgia trips, add a Wayback bookmarklet to your Firefox or Opera toolbar or Internet Explorer favorites; clicking the button will call up the archive of the site you're viewing.

Top 4: Tell the Truth in Secret.
Maybe your boss has bad breath, or a close friend is in serious need of an ego trim. You can slip them a word in secret using Sharpmail's anonymous e-mailer. You can send your message in plain text or HTML, or you can send an SMS message to someone's cell phone. (But don't even think about sending abusive or spammish mail, or Sharpmail will pull your free account.) Who knows? Maybe you'll receive an anonymous message taking you to task for your passive-aggressive e-mail tendencies.

Top 3: Create Your Own Reality TV Show
Why should Paris Hilton and Donald Trump get all the glory? On ManiaTV you can submit your own 5-minute video clip; if it's picked, the site will devote an hour of programming to a video of your life. You can also send in clips from your mobile phone, or program an hour-long "mixtape" of your favorite video clips for broadcast online. This self-styled MTV (without the TV) claims 1 million unique visitors a month.

Top 2: Hire a Nag
There was something I wanted to tell you...now, what was it again? Oh, yeah--it was about RemindMe.com. This nifty service pops up a window on your computer for those crucial events (birthdays, anniversaries, tee times) when relying on a personal organizer just isn't enough. The stand-alone package costs $25, but a free (ad-supported) e-mail version should be available by the time you read this.

Top 1: Blog at Light Speed.
When you have something to say right away, let Bubbler be your mouthpiece. This convenient blogging tool resides on your desktop, enabling you to post entries, publish images, and share files with just a few mouse clicks--no wading through multiple log-on windows or dealing with kludgy posting tools. Bubbler will host a simple text blog with 1MB of storage for free; paid options that allow you more storage space range from 10MB ($5 a month) to 4GB ($100 a month).

Top 5 Technological Inventions.

2007-08-15T00:56:00.000-07:00

Top 5: Electricity.

This one is here basically because without it, we could never use the other ones.

Electricity wasn't invented. Its properties were discovered, examined and explained by Alessandro Volta and Benjamin Franklin.

Top 4: Cell Phone. (1947)

In less than twenty years, mobile phones have gone from being rare and expensive pieces of equipment used primarily by the business elite to a pervasive low-cost personal item. In many countries, mobile phones now outnumber land-line telephones, with most adults and many children using mobile phones. This is definitely a "can't live without".

Top 3: Television. (1900)

At the World's Fair in Paris, the first International Congress of Electricity was held. That is where Russian Constantin Perskyi made the first known use of the word "television." Someone said it was a stupid box that no one will ever buy, and the rest is history.

Top 2: Computer. (1947)

The phrase "dot com" enters our language in the 1990s, but the sequence of innovations that leads to the Internet goes back at least 40 years. One-hundred sixteen people think this is the Best Invention for Humanity. Lust so long as it runs, and allows you to do more than a mere human can. But it's useless without our number one. If you spend more time fucking with it than creating, then it is just an annoyance.

Top 1: Internet.

The internet is definitely the number one. This one is so great that it not only lets you entertain, learn, listen to your music, meet people, do your homework, look for porn, meet the love of your life, book a flight, download movies, read the news and know the world without moving anywhere, besides all that you can have top number 4 and 3, all in one. Top of the top.

We couldn’t live without the internet!
