People Are Bidding For A Bag Of Kobe Bryant’s ‘Game Used Air’

Darpan News Desk IANS, 18 Apr, 2016 12:00 AM
    In the grand tradition of people seriously selling bags of air, someone decided to sell air from Kobe's last game at the Staples Center. Though eBay has since taken the advertisement down, the bidding went up to $16,000.
     
     
    On Sunday afternoon, eBay user cardemon_huskers2015 listed an item to the auction site described as “Kobe Bryant Last Game Used Air Autograph Bag 60 pts” along with a picture of a plastic bag, clearly still full of air, autographed in black marker. By Sunday evening, the price had climbed to $4,599.99.
     
    The ad reads:
    “Kobe Bryant Last Game Used Bag of Air Signed by Kobe Bryant on April 13th 2016 at Staples Center. I bought this from a guy off of Craigslist.The Autograph looks authentic to me,judge for yourself.This is your chance to own this amazing collectible.The bag reads Kobe Bryant Last Game Used Air Autograph Bag Staples Center 4-13-16 60 pts.Due to the scarcity,I will be accepting reasonable offers only.This is by PayPal only.

    eBay mercifully took the item down, saving one idiot the embarrassment of paying $16,000 for air.
