I know this is the wrong place for this but you all HAVE to see this! It's an Ebay link to an auction for a "ghost in a jar" There are lots of them!
Ghost in a jar auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2931457201&category=1469)
If you would rather not follow the link then do a search on Ebay for "ghost in a jar". Sorry mods but I had to spread the fun on this one. :D
That looks like he just painted that crap on the jar... if the box was rotted out, you'd think the paint would wear away as well :rolleyes:
If someone wants to pay that insane amount for it, they can just go right ahead.. more power to them :D

Heh. Well I hope this does some kind of cooling for your computer since you posted this in the 'General Cooling' forum:D. Can't believe someone would pay that much for a painted jar. Looks like the economy isn't really that bad after all.

25K hmmm lookes around his basement to find some thing to sell on e-bay.The haunted floppy DISK!
hmm ok this make me want to sell my 2ndary box. I have this computer for 3 yrs, but i CANT get rid of it. I sold it damn cheap to a friend about 8 months ago. He brought it home, and tunred it on. NO POST whatsoever, he tried everything he could. He brought it back to me, viola it booted just fine. So weird but the deal is over i couldnt sell it. I've been using for old games like CS or starcraft. Its hard to explain but i think it understands me. I talked to it sometimes and man it never failed me,... I put a dead PSU in and it still post. The PSU refused to work in any other setup.
I got this comp from a bankruptcy office, so i have no idea about its original story.
I will post it on evilBay start at 150US and very high reserve for SERIOUS bidder only.
WARNING: Any one else interfering with this legitimate auction in any way, such as astronomical bids, high bids with bid retraction, or in any other form, will be subject to not only action from Ebay due to rules violation, but are also in violation of Federal Trade Laws concerning interstate commerce.

Lol. Some people are so gullible.
Hmm... this "seeping black mist" ... couldn't that just be something that was pressurizing the bottle and had black sand in it?
Can anyone say "False Advertisement" :D

The scariest thing is the fact this guy sells other 'real' items..and he has feedback for other 'normal' items.....very freaky.
Also, notice all pictures of his in some cabin or some sort...can you say...Blair Witch

OMG!!!!!!
gee calm down! I dont think the aution is real
its a joke! if ppl can be that dumb, then Jim Carey is not a dumb
:D
hmmm....
Get the inside the jar ghost to do his best imitation of a heatpipe (like, promise to let him out someday or something) and strap SLK's all around the jar, that would be the slickest custom cooling ever!! Do you think he comes with standard socket mounting hardware? 4 hole method would be necessary for all that weight, though...
Give him a little voltage, maybe he'd make a good TEC! :D :D :D

They even have a "Ghost In Jar" box keeper now. Even more funny is a leash for your "ghost" to train it.
