I found this funny:

"Nobody'll buy anything of mine," Boston center fielder Coco Crisp said before the game. "I throw away my garbage and people dig it up and say, `yep,' and put it back."

 

"Somebody said it was on there for 4,700 bucks. That's crazy," right fielder J.D. Drew said of the grill. "I'm not buying it."

 

Well, J.D., it's up to $200,000 now. :shock:

That bid must have been retracted. It's now down to "only" $99,650,100.

Ebay doesn't show user ID's anymore. But I wonder how many of those bidders have more than (0) feedback. I doubt very "manny". . I keed!

As usual, eBay ends the fun by removing the auction. :roll:

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Auction was removed because it violated Ebay's policy.

The seller's contact information given to the Web site when the item was listed was not that of the Boston Red Sox slugger, said eBay spokeswoman Nichola Sharpe.

 

The customer support team called the phone number in the contact information and spoke several times with someone other than Ramirez, she said.

 

"We have requested additional verification," Sharpe said. "If it's not officially from (Ramirez) it would disappoint his many fans."

 

She suggested that if Ramirez is verified as the owner, he might want to list it on eBay's charity program that allows proceeds to go to the charity of the seller's choice.
