A piece of toast with the face of Sid Vicious on it.

Got a neg for it 3 weeks later because it fell apart.

Nothing out of the ordinary really but I remember the early days when people were listing snowmen they had built and the bids were going over the million pound mark  (and not paying).

I also remember a listing for 3 leaves off of the Oak tree at Sherwood forest and an antique carpet sweeper listed as having a ghost inside it.

Toast? You surprise me @*vyolla* 😄

A resistor........................buyer couldn't help himself!

Good Afternoon Car

A used and 'blown' large light bulb for approx £8.00. The couple who bought it travelled 30 miles to collect it.

Additionally one small,vintage metal golf tee that sold to a 'more money that sense' American for £110.00

I did see a post about a year ago that mentioned false teeth. Can anyone else remember seeing it?

A few years back I sold a carnival glass bowl. Nothing special and available everywhere. I did a bit of research and they were selling for between 20 to 30 quid. I listed it as auction and started it at £10.  About 10 minutes later, there were a few bids and it was on 120.00. I stared in disbelief at the screen. The next morning, it was on exactly £400.00. In my inbox was a message from someone in the USA who wrote "a great rare piece...this will go crazy". I started researching again but was mystified. I wrote back to the person who sent the message and asked why was it doing so well. He didn't reply. I started to get edgy and worried. The day before it finished, it was on £940. Come the day after, it was on £1300. Sat at the laptop with a few minutes to go and was 'refreshing like f***'. 20 seconds left and it started. Bids coming in and it finished on £1,880. It was paid for immediately. I messaged the buyer to ask why it had done so well and his reply was that "these bowls have 10 ruffles around the top, yours has 9. The 'niner' is very rare and I'm delighted to have won it, Please pack it well for its journey to the States". I sent it with enough packing to survive a nuclear bomb and meanwhile, I left the money sitting in PayPal, scared to withdraw it in case something went wrong. About 10 days later, I got a message from the buyer. In those days you could read the first few words of a message without opening it. Those words were 'the bowl has arrived but unfortunately...' My heart sank as I opened the message but the words following 'unfortunately' were...I am away on a business trip so haven't seen it yet but my wife has opened it and it is perfect and gorgeous. (something along those lines). Needless to say I immediately logged in to PayPal and withdrew the money to my bank account.

Well a few years ago  according to the buyer..............a Sat Nav that insisted trying to take him into a river !  From his rants i think he came close.

As i informed him one has to follow the rules of the road too and not do literally what a Sat Nav says.......

A lump of chalk weighing 150g.

OK, it did have an original paper geological specimen label with it, but it was still a lump of chalk.

Three Bakelite stair carpet 'runners', the old type that the back is screwed to the stair and the decorative carpet holder slides on top.

I found four in a junk shop but I broke one when cleaning it. 

As you need two per stair I was surprised and happy that someone bought an odd number, but even happier when they left nice FB to say they arrived safely.

I sold someones false teeth years ago, i found them in a box of philatelic material. The bonus was they had 15ct gold for the fillings, made a tidy sum!
