Despite the clutter of stupid people bidding and eventually buying all of the shady PlayStation 3 eBay auctions for boxes and random paraphenalia, this one purchase stands far above the others. eBay user takeawildguess23 put up what appears to be a PlayStation 3, to the ignorant of course. See the whole story after the jump.
""You are bidding on the contact information for my friend who acquired a PS3 by waiting in line outside Best Buy for two days in advance. I was there with him the entire time, but already sold mine. He has in his posession a PS3, extra controller, extra charger, three games (Resistance, Madden, and Ridge Racer), and a 2 year replacement plan. Keep in mind that you are not bidding on an actual system, but only the information where you might obtain one. You will be able to contact him and he is very willing to sell if the price is right. The unit is in the Atlanta, GA area and he would be willing to deliver in person if close by. PayPal is the only payment form accepted.""
Oh boy. Sadly, 20 bids were cast on this particular auction. The winning bidder was named digitalbrew1, but I'm wondering if he was high when he placed a bid on this auction. The final price of the PS3 contact information was $1,100 -- what an unfortunate fool. But hey, look at the bright side, shipping is free

I remember seeing somebody sell a photo of an XBox 360 for like $500 last year. The auction clearly stated that it was a photo.
