The Most Strangest Things Sold Online

A long time ago, I've seen a piece of gum that was chewed by a famous person and bought for $10,000 on Ebay. It was cased in a box and the gum was grey.

Anyways, what's the most strangest thing you've seen sold online?

Oh wow. Here we go:

An IRC channel (I forget the name of it...but it used to be the biggest chan on DALnet.)
Our local hotel.
Random towns.
A giant Cheeto
Souls, bodies, beatings...
Prechewed food (for the teethless)
A bag of pennies
A single penny (of no significance)
Hire someone to quit for you.
A replacement tire valve cover.
The coolest screenshot ever.
Someones porn collection.

There are so many more...
