TOILET PAPER fetched stunning 41 pence in an Ebay UK auction, with an extra 28 pence added for postage and packing.

Yes, the weird and wacky world of Ebay auctions is something to behold.

As well as the loo roll, someone auctioned an emergency flint which fetched one penny, with 28 pence added for postage and packing.

While the one that really got us was the auction of Bexhill-on-Sea pebbles, which managed to reach a staggering 99 pence before the auction was closed. Because pebbles are heavier than the emergency toilet paper or the flint, an additional 63 pence was required for postage and packing.

The last auctionner has a fantastic collection of other items for sale including a Dumbo sleepsuit and a pair of black shoes as well as a CD from Westlife.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
