I stumbled across a guy selling his life today. His entire identity, all of his stuff, even his skills. Can't find the link now, but it was pretty funny.

I've seen this done a few times before. If I remember properly, previously these sales were shut down because the seller was simply selling their soul, which is not an item, and thus the sale was canceled due to no actual item listed as being for sale (at least, nothing receivable; the buyer could claim after the sale that the soul was never received from the seller).

This guy has got around that by saying he will deliver a piece of paper saying "My Soul" written in blood, which is basically what a potential buyer would end up paying for and receiving.

There's people who sold air guitars and the such... hell even advertisement space on their heads... why wouldn't this work?

It can work, since the seller is actually selling an item; a piece of paper that says "My Soul" written in blood. Now he's just gotta find a sucker willing to pay all that money for it.

What are you talking about? Jen met hamma via the net after all. Why do you think they got married so fast?

Newegg has mine locked up. Tried to do an RMA on it. No good. They probably just sent it up to accounts receivable and are now using it as a shredder....
