Ive seen a few stupid items sold on the main kiwi auctions, Trademe.co.nz

Some comes to mind...

Empty coke bottle minus the cap <- actual Title.
ex wifes underwear (unwashed) <-- actual Title.
Last ciggarette (BUTT) by a quitter, butt sealed in a glass case where bidding went up to $600.

Chucked out ex hubbies clothes still outside on the lawn in the mud. Her auction sold $300+ .


Some idiots will buy anything form an auction providing you have given a good enough reason to sell it. And then again some are just frigging perverts!

Trademe is a true success story in our country. Back in 1999 a young guy named Sam Morgan borrowed $600, of a mate, Sam a programmer created the Trademe website (first online auction site in NZ) and had 3 working around the clock running it. In 2006 he sold Trademe for 700 Million to Fairfax Australia.
