Holy sandwich!

This is completely bizarre. Today, news24 reported on a 10-year old sandwich being sold for nearly $30,000.

A 10-year-old grilled cheese sandwich whose maker says bears the image of the Virgin Mary, was sold for $28 000 after one of the most bizarre bidding wars on the auction website eBay.

The cheese sandwich had received offers as high as $99m before eBay officials called the seller and urged her to verify the bids to make sure they were legitimate

The winning bid was made by GoldenPalace, an online casino. Of course, you can guess how many links now link to this casino. I'd say it was probably a great business decision.
