I stumbled across this looking for something totally different, but this listing surprised me and made me laugh.
Here is part of the description about damage to the bag, which made me roll my eyes at first. I’m not sure what made me scroll through the photos - probably curiosity wondering how bad it was - and photo 6 made me laugh! The seller definitely has a sense of humor.

And the stinkier they are and the more descriptive the seller is in the description, the more money they sell for.

Both the following are listed as "new with defects"
Description: "Had these in my PE locker for about two years, only washed probably once. They smell super bad."
Sold for $23.50 including shipping: https://www.ebay.com/itm/dirty-and-...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Same seller, different socks sold for over $20 with shipping - "I have spent 40 minutes in the gym per day for a week in these. They smell super bad."

I’m so jealous of your Amazon feed right now... I thought I got the weirdest, most random recommendations based upon my cart/viewing history but I think you just dropped the mic on me!!!

You're an innocent! People also sell smelly socks, although they have to claim they wash them before they send them.

There are even worse items up for bid...I stumbled across some when people were discussing "used sissy panties" on the eBay community forum.

What really made my eyes pop out of my head though were the listings selling used condoms which were described as still having fecal matter and blood on them. Barforama.

It's not even listed as a charity listing. That's a violation.

I reported it. But I doubt eBay will do anything especially after seeing how insanely high the auction bid is. The $.$ on their eyes must be glowing! Who knew some random youtuber’s signature can net such a high price. I hope the winning bidder doesn’t pay and is just in for the ride. I would hate to see the greedy seller hog all of that money instead of giving all 100% of those proceeds to that charity. Greedy scammer.

Highly suspicious bidding activity. Many of the low feedback bidders bid only on items sold by this seller.
