Job Posted November 17, 2004 Cheesy Conception of Virgin Mary Up For Grabs The near immaculate creation of a cheese sandwich bearing a likeness to the Virgin Mary was an unusual, though unwelcome, addition to the Ebay auctions. Seller Diana Duyser was drawing bids as high as $22,000 before Ebay administration cancelled the auction, claiming it to be a farse. Duyser contacted them and convinced them of its legitimacy - the sandwich is back up for auction, bids currently at $16,000. More on this story here.

S1lent Posted November 19, 2004 Ya, I noticed that eBay slowly started to get rid of the sandwich. It originally was somewhere at $20,000. Then it was decreased to $10,000. Then $5,000 and then $50. Finally they just took it off. I'm kinda glad they did because, though it was funny, it was really dumb.. 0 Share this post Link to post
