The high-face sales record in eBay.com.au was set in 2016 when someone bought a Victorian license plate marked “L1V LRG”.
Unfortunately, there is no data on where this license plate is today, however, we expect the lucky owner to be L1V’n LRG.

Offering Australians the to own a piece of history, eBay member andyman_12 attempted to sell 300g of poo from the noted Australian racehorse Winx.
The list indicated that he had been picked up in a closing bag just before the champion racehorse in position to compete at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne.He also stated that he “had never been manipulated by human hands.”
“It has since been refrigerated and weighs about three hundred grams,” he continued.
“Don’t miss your own piece of history.”

Perhaps most unexpected is the fact that the list attracted several bidders with a gambler who provided $550 for the literal poop.
Apart from biological hazards and authentication problems, our deepest condolences to the poor director who had to contend with the next poop vendors to capitalize on the stinking trend.
