Saddam Hussein's Rolls Royce is (was) on eBay
Every dictator loves a Rolls – and Saddam’s fantastic Corniche was, until a few hours ago, listed for sale on eBay for £185,000.
Coming in a superb purple – no doubt to help mask blood stains of the peasants – the car was apparently bought from the Iraqi government by Surrey-based car dealer…
The real McFly – genuine Back to the Future 2 Nike Mag on eBay
Has anyone got $5,000 I can borrow? I’ll pay you back, I promise, but it might take while – not because it’ll be hard getting the money but because I’ll be playing with my genuine Back to the Future II 2015 McFly Nike boot that’s just appeared on eBay!
I’m quivering. I’m actually quivering as I write this. I’m a-quiver. Seeing that Nike had released some completely useless replica of the McFly 2015 last week, known as the Nike Hyperdunk, the prop meister general, who designed the original for the Zemeckis trilogy, dug up the old prototype and put it up for auction…

He’s supporting the Wallace & Gromit Children’s Foundation which helps children’s hospitals and hospices within…
You've seen the Apple iPhone… now buy the T-shirt!
Okay, so us Brits can't get our clammy hands on an iPhone until the end of the year (if we're lucky), but we can kit ourselves out with some suitably iPhony merchandise. Bayraider's sniffed out two very-much unofficial iPhone t-shirt…
Buy a MiG 21F military jet on eBay
Why? Why not?! It's not every day that you get a chance to buy a prime Cold War-era military jet, after all. This Russian-built plane has a max speed of 1,385 mph, a max range of 721 miles, and contains…
Get a life-size Sylvester Stallone on eBay
Rocky's back! It's only a matter of time before Rambo follows him. Yes, Sylvester Stallone looks set to be a big-screen star again in 2007 thanks to Rocky Balboa, which puts the ageing warhorse back in the ring. And Bayraider…
Top 30 celebrity eBay auctions of 2006
As any dedicated stalker celeb-fan knows, eBay is fertile ground for getting a piece of the stars. Not literally a piece, obviously. That's not allowed. But anyway, Bayraider has spent the year tracking the hottest celebrity tat on eBay, and…
Get Ricky Martin's signed VAIO laptop on eBay
Whatever happened to shimmy-hipped Latin lothario Ricky Martin anyway? He hasn't turned up on any seedy TV reality shows recently, so he must still have a career of sorts. Oh, hang on, he's a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. So I'd better…
