Deep Toast

This toast certainly has a colorful history associated with it. The Dunce is not quite sure what the numbers burned into this toast are supposed to mean. The auction description was way too long for me to read… seriously folks, why make your description novel length? We don't care that much, we just want to waste our money and move on to the next auction!

About Dumb Auctions

Welcome to Dumb Auctions!

Here at DumbAuctions.com, we are dedicated to bringing you the dumbest of the dumb auctions. All auctions must pass a 115 point inspection to insure their utter and complete idiocy before making it onto the site.

Allow me to introduce myself. I am The Dunce. I search, grab, and report on all the dumb auctions that I can find all over eBay. Nothing is too crazy or too moronic for me. I was hired on to help create the worlds best collection of really dumb auctions, past and present. Everything is fair game!

I started this site in June, 2005 because I know people can't resist a good dumb auction. I just can't believe what people get away with selling on eBay — and even crazier, what people pay for this junk!

I am always looking for new and insanely bizarre auctions to put up on the site. If you think you have found an auction that will pass our rigorous inspection, feel free to email me.

Selling on eBay

How to sell your stuff on eBay

If you have not started selling on eBay, then you have probably been collecting large piles of useless trinkets and dodads for far too long. If it seems like its time to clean house, then eBay is a great place to do it. The Dunce is actually a quite accomplished eBay seller. As you can see, The Dunce spends way too much time on eBay… but you guys get the benefits. I am going to share some of my little nuggets of wisdom with you all.

This being a site dedicated to the funny, crazy, weird, absurd, insane, stupid, and just plain dumb auctions on eBay… The Dunce is going to tell you how to make tuns of money selling the stuff you did not think anyone would ever want. You think that rotten apple that kind looks like Elvis should go into the garbage? Wrong! It may be worth 50 bucks to someone out there in eBay land. Dont believe me? Well check out this post about a very old can of campbells soup.

Tips and Tricks

  • Make sure you submit your auction to The Dunce. Sure, I might find it in my eBay wanderings… but maybe I won't. If you submit it to me, then I'm sure to know about it, and you have a much better chance of making it to the main page of DumbAuctions.com!
  • Put one of the links in you descrition that lets people watch your auction, it's a nice subtle reminder. Don't know how to do that? here…

    <a xhref="http://cgi1.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MakeTrack&item=##########" mce_href="http://cgi1.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MakeTrack&item=##########"> Watch My auction </a>

    Copy that code into your page, and put your item number in place of the pound signs. Then you're all set. You will have to submit your auction first, then go back and revise it. That way you will know the item number

  • A little dare can go a long way. Try to come up with a creative way to dare your viewers to become bidders. You might even try just flat out daring them! No one can resist a dare.

Worlds oldest rubber band

Up for auction today is the worlds oldest rubber band! Ok, ok … so it's not really the oldest, but its still pretty old. I always break my rubber bands when I am trying to shoot them at people, so I don't think that I have a rubber band that is more than maybe one year old. That is about how often I go through a bag of them.

So I think this 50 year old rubber band is pretty impressive.

I doubt this one would shoot very far though
