For Sale: One Country. Cheap.
A Belgium resident, tired of the bickering between Flemish and Walloon politicians, decided it was time for the whole country to go… to the highest bidder on eBay. The listing read, “For Sale: Belgium, a Kingdom in three parts … free premium: the king and his court (costs not included).”
Of course, the winning bidder would also have to take on the country’s $300 billion national debt, but they’d save a fortune with free delivery.
Officials at eBay pulled the auction after someone actually bid $14 million.
Can I just bid for the chocolate?
Sure! Bidding starts at $14 million, from what I hear.
Hilarious, but definitely weird.
