Craigslist Gives Peek Into Odd DNC Items
Search Of Craigslist, EBay, Proves People Will Sell Anything Online


<snip>

But, a search of the popular Web sites craigslist.org and eBay suggest that this year, many people are going the non-traditional route to cash in on convention madness.

“Obama DNC Urinal Screens - $4” reads the headline of one post on Denver’s Craigslist page.

The ad promotes a urinal screen featuring a bulls-eye that can be custom made with your company’s logo or political message. It encourages buyers to place the screens in urinals at Invesco Field during Sen. Obama’s speech on Thursday night.

Other sellers are attaching the DNC moniker to literally anything to make a sale online.

“This is your chance to own a piece of the city that is hosting the most memorable presidential extravaganza in history!” reads the headline of an eBay posting. “This amazing dirt was hand-selected in downtown Denver just beneath a utility pole … This is truly an unbelievable chance to have some Democratic dirt.”
