Tries to sell all his possessions in EBay but fails…
October 1, 2005And guess how much he could fetch if the deal goes through? More than GBP 22 000! (GBP means Great Britain Pounds…if you’re curious
)
The bid started at GBP 1, and within 10 days, it shot up to that amount. Impressive? Guess not, the winning bidder pulled out the very last minute; 30 seconds before the bid closed.
Mr Hartwright, a web designer who lives with his parents in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, put his possessions up for sale to try to clear his debts and make a fresh start. The eBay page had more than 233,500 hits and attracted 135 bids, which soared from £1 to the final £22,100 in just 10 days. The final offer was made by a bidder known by the user identity nickyb25082092.

You can sell almost everything in EBay, it seems.
