Haunted items rake in the $ on eBay
Back in the early days of this weblog I posted about a haunted painting that was auctioned on eBay (here’s a site with photos of that painting and the original eBay ad text). Here’s a current item that’s another example of how calling an item “haunted” will increase its eBay value.
(Edited to add — I forgot to mention earlier that this link is via Neil Gaiman.)
AIEEE. That painting seriously freaks me out…and even though I usually dig the creepy; I don’t think I could have that in my house.
Yeah, it was creepy as heck. What about that cabinet in the current auction, though? I thought it was kind of neat, actually. But $280?!
I looked and looked at those photos and wasn’t really creeped. I looked at the bottom 2 and noticed no difference. I dunno whether to believe this is haunted or not. I’ll try to not be a pessamist
