    Just take a look at some of the other stuff won by the same bidder, all for publicity value I suppose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg

    If I was a God and wanted to show how powerful I was I am not sure I would manifest myself as a pretzel snack. Unless of course he was planning on testing her faith (and having her choke on it if she ate it).

    Incidently the winning bid is the name of a famous spamware trojan site.

    "PRETZEL PRAYER

    Bless this special Lenten bread, O God. May its folded arms remind us of your love which folds around us. Let this little bread help us to especially remember your son, Jesus, during Lent. Guide us, O God, into his loving ways each day. Amen"

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie


    Look at the bids, are you sure this is authentic? See the way some bidders bid higher after they had already bid higher the the previous bidder? Why would you bid higher and then add more to your bid? Did somebody REALLY buy that for $10,600 :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,713 ✭✭✭✭jor el


    It just goes to show, people are idiots.

    Check out some of the other auctions that guy has won for more proof.

    We all had a feeling of warmth and spirituality when holding the pretzel.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,466 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    I put up a mystery box on an auction site once and it was removed. What a rip off.

    Sadly, the 'Frank must die' is true, the one listed as ?????. The kid named his cancer to give it an identity. The others though are such insanity. It's like that grilled cheese that sold for $28000 in case you didn't see it http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6511148/

    It's only going to get worse... :D:D

    Was this by any chance inspired by the "mystery box" incident in Family Guy??!!
    Rofl, that still makes me laugh to this day!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 542 ✭✭✭Hoochiemama


    OMG!! for the one above about the giant frosty listen to some quotes in his description

    I simply poured a bowl of frosted deliciousness and this beauty fell out of the box. I said “WHOA!” and here it is


    I have been eating and enjoying Frosted Flakes for years from my early youth into my current adulthood. I have literally eaten hundreds of bowls and I regularly finish off at least a box and a half every month. Why, because THEEEYYY’RE GREAT!

    WTF??????????

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 542 ✭✭✭Hoochiemama

    Thats an effect of the auto-bid system on Ebay.
    Ebay will bid as much of your bid necessary to win up to
    the maximum amount you enter.
    The multiple entries by some people didnt beat the max bid
    of the current winning bidder so it appears as if they're bidding
    against themselves, it threw me at first too. :)


    That is the craziest auction ive seen on ebay.
    Holy virgin mary pretzel batman, its all a bad dream.
