Corn Flake Auction Removed From Ebay

Corn Flake Auction Removed From Ebay: "Corn Flake Auction Removed From Ebay


The two sisters from Virginia who were selling a cornflake shaped like the state of Illinois were notified by email that the auction site Ebay has cancelled their listing, citing violation of the auction site's food policy.

As previously reported here, two sisters from Virginia found an unusually shaped cornflake in their box of cereal. Looking like the state of Illinois, the sisters decided to put the cornflake up for auction on Ebay with bids upwards of over $200.

Ebay has allowed the sisters to relist the auction for the cornflake as a redeemable coupon in exchange for the cornflake, specifying that the cornflake is 'not edible' in the listing."

Here is the beginning of my post. And here is the rest of it.
