Marmaland News: Iceland listed on ebay - GREENLAND AND Björk ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION!


At 21.31 GMT on the 7th October, after a couple of glasses of wine we decided it might be fun to sell Iceland on EBay.

We were listing the financially troubled North European Country, not the frozen food stores 'fronted' by Kerry Katona.
Based on past eBay dealings we expected the listing to be removed within minutes rather than hours.
However at the time of writing, more than 38 hours after the auction started - it is still in place.
It has already been viewed by several hundred people has generated a couple of dozen of questions (with some of the more amusing published within the listing) & the country looks like it could go for the maiden bid of 99p to a buyer here in the UK.
We did glance at the EBay rules and regulations, and saw no evidence that a London based Marmalade themed superhero selling a Nordic country on the auction site is actually breaking any rules.
However I suspect that the listing wont be there for long, so if you fancy seeing it for yourself click quickly on:
