Selling Your Soul On eBay

from the time-to-get-a-life dept

A man in Washington State actually got to sell his soul on eBay before eBay people took the auction down. Usually when people try to sell things like their soul, eBay cancels them quickly. This one got through, and was sold for $400 - though it's not clear that anyone expects the money to change hands. Even the seller admits that it was really more of a creative personal ad. Considering that's his position, it's interesting to see that his ex-girlfriend bid $6.66 for his soul.
