* You may join eBay and get free promotion by bidding on these weird items. Your name shows up on the frontpage if you are the highest bidder- on the Bid History if you get outbidded. Curious viewers will then check out your own About Me page where you can say something about your business.
* Put up an auction-related website and then contact the sellers of these auctions so they will mention your site in exchange for free advertising. Take advantage of eBay/' s affiliate program and possibilities of direct advertising on your site. But before you do this- make sure you offer value services on your site to keep your traffic going.
The possibilities are endless. You don/' t even have to sell on eBay to benefit from weird auctions.
