As some of you know, my favorite hobby after schools is going to EBay and seeing what people will spend obscene amounts of money on. Some of my best finds:

Triceratops Skull: $55,100
Chinese Marriage Bed: $15,000
Two Life-Sized Bronze Horses: $38,000
Diamond Studded Cat Collar: $199.99
1904 Olympics Booklet: $50,000
First Draft Nostradamus: $5,000,000
Brunette Barbie: $1,772.52
Bottle of Chateau Margaux Wine: $1,060.95
Genuine Prop Tie Fighter Helmet: $10,001

More to come :D

Now who would waste their hard earned money on that junk, unless you are rich that is.

E-Bay is awesome, I spend so much of my online time on there looking for good deals.

There are good deals there!? :D

I have gotten brand new, perfectly-working things there for half or a third of what they would cost in the store. I never thought I would ever be able to afford some of the stuff I've bought from there. I only get new items though; it's not all used products on E-Bay. You have to be careful though.

I would never buy anything online, its not very trust worthy...

There's a fraud protection program. You can't really lose.

I'm not really in the mood to get specific. It works, believe me.
