BRITISH ‘BIG BROTHER’ INSPIRES BIG E-BAY BIDS



LONDON (Wireless Flash) – Big Brother may be getting so-so ratings in America but the British version is inspiring lots of activity on Ebay. Items used on the recently-completed British Big Brother are receiving extraordinarily high bids – including the “Diary Room Chair” which has a current bid of more than $68,000. That’s not all. A painting of the British housemates that they did themselves is getting offers in excess of $11,000. Some of the bids have been canceled at the last minute – including one cancellation that blamed the bogus bid on “children playing with the PC.” The British Big Brother E-Bay Auction ends (Aug. 4) with proceeds going to charity.
