members, there were reports that even the weirdest things were
auctioned and even sold on eBay.

Here are some of them:

1. Ghost in a Jar

There was an actual report about an item, dubbed as a "ghost in
a jar", being sold on eBay. The seller narrated in his item
description how he got the jars (there were two, actually). The
seller claimed that the remaining jar contains some "black
thing" based on what happened to the other jar after it fell to
the ground and emitted some sort of black smoke.

The auctioned placed 60 bids during the listing and had reached
$90 million. Though, there are no concrete reports as to whether
the sale was really closed or who got the item in that amount.

kit includes an ebony wood stake, a crossbow with four
silver-tipped arrows, a variety of surgical instruments, and a
large bottle of holy water.

3. UFO Detector

company. It was said on the auction that this item can actually
detect an approaching UFO or can spot an UFO activity.

4. Russian Test space Shuttle

reserve price for this item is $2 million but was auctioned and
