I saw a link on Penny Arcade today about a person who is selling a decommisioned nuclear luanch silo. It's only $1,500,000 :P, and you can remodel it for several purposes, such as opening the luanch doors foor a 100' skylight. I can't believe that they are selling it on ebay though!

Dude, a guy sold his dead body on there once. While he was still alive, obviously.
How often do people sell things they don't legally own? Yep, pretty damn often.

Hey now, that's not fair. :(
She's at least worth a fifty :P
???
I should be ashamed...
TW, I take any form of cash. However, ten bucks is a bit low...that veggie peeler more than compensates though. I'll accept.
We have a deal, then! I'll send you the money in the box with the vegetable peeler. I can only pay you in loose change, though, but you can easily get cash at a grocery store with one of those machines.

That cat will never last until Friday.
I can give you some remodeling tips, Dr.

For anyone still interested in that silo:
You better watch out for the Stalagmen.
...Oh, and Deep Crows. Deep Crows too.

..You had the power guys hook it up first, right?
He's not gonna answer you 'cause he's already dead. Didn't I tell you? DEEP CROWS!
eBay is silly. You can sell pieces of blonde hair, say they're from Britney Spears and get hundreds of dollars.
Ah, I remember seeing slaves for sale once...

I already bought it, though. However, I will sell it to you if you like... I'll think of a price.
eBay can be cruel at times... For example, there are several games I'd like to get for my Sega Saturn, but they're ridiculously expensive. Perhaps it's because someone originally overcharged for a game that other folks who wanted to sell the same game saw how much they were asking and charged that much, too. However, I'll bet that most of the copies of the games I want that are on eBay are only worth maybe half of what people are asking.
Someone who was in debt needed money fast, so he tried to sell himself and his familiy on ebay, saying they could be housekeepers and such. Only $5 million. But it got taken down before it was completed.
I do offer exterminating services to take care of those annoying Stalagmen and Deep Crows.

i had the amish do it, noone knows more about electricity than the amish!
That's not the only thing the Amish are good for. You see that Amish Gone Wild video? Those chicks dress real nice.
You know, when I saw this topic, a certain part of me smiled, and threw a plan together. After a quick shoulder angel argument, I realized that I didn't have anywhere near that much cash, and my red shoulder angel got his butt kicked. Still, its incredible what you'll find on ebay.
Didn't someone sell a piece of toast with Jesus' face on it or something?
Probably Virgin Mary. She's really popular on toast.
Majora's Mask is ridiculously cheap on eBay.
To bad those XBox's people are selling for a cent probably are just scams.
I'm still available for extermination services. I use humane techniques, and by humane I mean a 10 gauge shotgun.
Maybe an AK-47, too.
I once found a dust particle on Ebay. Dead serious! It cost like, $5.06.
Wonder how much shipping would cost.

Definitely. There are other scams like that, too. For example, misleading item descriptions. They supposedly sell new X-Boxes, and they say stuff like "Included in the box is all the normal stuff; the controller, TV hookups...", intentionally leaving out any mention of the actual system. Then when they ship it, they include everything
but the system. Some people also sell
pictures of the X-Box, but word it so it sounds like you're getting a system, and not just a picture.
I saw something odd on eBay tonight. I found a Japanese Sega Saturn analog controller; The currency was in Australian dollars, but the item location was... Hong Kong. Sounds almost scammish, doesn't it?
If it's either too good to be true or sounds like a scam, it probably is.
We bought MM on eBay for 5 dollars... of course, if it IS a scam, then we won't lose much on that deal...
Just remember:
Old Game= Low Price= Happy Gamer! (Unless the particular game you got sucks... like what happened to me once.)
