Driving Miss Dummy

Car pool lane protester Greg Pringle from Aurora USA has sold a makeshift mannequin made of a polystyrene head, a coat hanger and clothing stuffed with newspaper. Mr Pringle had previously been fined $115 for using the "Tillie" to foil car pool restrictions. We not sure who is a bigger dummy: Tillie or the suckers who parted with $15,000 for her.

Here's One We Flogged Earlier

We're afraid that Blue Peter Badge holders will no longer be entitled to a tour around King Nutter Towers. Listings for the awards presented to kids on the TV show on eBay have been condemned by the BBC. Edinburgh Zoo are no longer admitting badge-wearers for free due to the illicit trade. Our reason is that we just hate swots.

eBay Pulse

UPDATE: John Deas from Scotland is the Heinzstein behind 'The Most Expensive Tin of Beans'. The final bean sold for £50.98 bringing the grand total to £355.01 (by our reckoning - feel free to correct our math).We have been anally keeping an individual tally, but were slightly disappointed that beans 100 thru 2 were sold all at once. Is this a record? Someone call McWhirter.

Taking the Pez

Taking eGay by storm are this pair of Brokeback Mountain Pez Dispensers. The seller promises that the items come fully loaded. Whether that be with bullets, sweets or something else is anyone's guess.

Too Poplar (Tree pun No. 1 of 5)

The owners of a tree with an image of the Virgin Mary on the trunk are figged off with thousands of believers trampling all over their lawn. How the winners of the auction are going to have it removed in spruce condition from the South Dallas, TX home intact is quite a monkey puzzle. We just hope they know to respect their elders.

Robert Pyas

A hardware store employee has found an image of Christ in the oily film on a sheet of metal. The places that guy turns up. Jeez.

Ashes to Ashes

Glen Beaton from Inverness will be fulfilling his Mum’s wish to visit far-flung parts of the globe. eBay removed his international request for people to scatter her ashes but not before receiving 300 positive responses. In an email this morning Glen tells us he will be thanking each individually and the ashes sent to a limited few.

Ariel Photography

An enterprising delivery guy took a snap of Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon on his hospital bed. eBay swiftly withdrew his auction offering exclusive rights. Do not click if you are easily disappointed.

...Like Hotcakes?

**** 

Ah. This is the sort of auction that started our site in the first place. Have a look at the news-making Jesus Pancake, realise it's boring and then work your way through the much more entertaining rip offs

Totally Frank

UPDATE: This hot dog purchased at a Seattle Seahawks football game reached a final bid of $1,800. We wonder if we'd have the same result with a Ginsters Pasty and cup of Bovril from a local Crystal Palace match.
