Have you seen this creepy listing yet on eBay about exorcism?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...








I e-mailed the seller about this ad and aksed him %26quot;if this item is real, then why is the starting bid at $24.99?%26quot; His answer, %26quot;Ebay fees were too high for $99.99.





Here is part of the listing.





These 3 Antique Holy Bible Cedar Boxes supposedly once contained the bibles used during the exorcism of a formerly demonically possessed woman during the 1950%26#039;s or 1960%26#039;s. According to legend, a local priest was called in the middle of the night to 1121 W 38th St in Anderson, Indiana to perform an exorcism. During the ritual, the priest removed a bible from each of the Cedar Boxes and used them during the ceremony. Witnesses have claimed that the ritual did not work during the first two attempts; however, something shocking happened during the third attempt. A bolt of lightning flew from the woman%26#039;s body and struck one cedar box causing the box to crack.





See for yourself!

Reply:Why would anyone sell something like that. It%26#039;s just plain creepy!
Reply:Creepy or not, the price is always set by the Seller. If he hopes that the price will go up (or,as stated, he is trying to save money on initial listing fees) then the starting price is immaterial. It is the final value price which makes the most difference.





Are they real? This is anyone%26#039;s guess. Creepy or not the guy could be telling the truth, or could be making up a great story for the readers to become bidders. You have no way of knowing. This is just another in the long line of interesting auctions (or well written auctions) on Ebay.
Reply:i would not trust him! just look at his picture... he wreaks of untrustworthyness.
Reply:Check out the satellite image on Google Maps of the address - it is hardly a vacant field.





Preliminary searches of the address (and the entire city) show only one incident of exorcism, by a delusional hospital worker. The acts took place within the hospital walls, not at a private residence.





In any exorcism, only one Holy Bible (containing both Old and New Testaments) is used. There would be no benefit to bringing two additional Bible, unless the books had been artifacts retrieved from a saint or holy place. Had that been the case, it is doubtful that they would have been buried with the woman; the exorcist would have been sure to keep them for future possessions.
Reply:Hi,





I have a lot of experience marketing small companies online (I have 3 companies). One of the best ways is to sign up at business directories and protals. These are basically listings of businesses (simliar to the phone book). The advantage is that these portals usually get a lot of traffic and they%26#039;re ranked high on Google because of all the quality links they contain.





My favorite portal is called Directory Exclusive. I signed up a few weeks ago because they%26#039;re giving a away a free business card holder when a person enter%26#039;s their company info. I received it in the mail 3 days ago =)





I don%26#039;t know if they still have that promotion, but you can try to get the free card holder here:
