The internet is a giant collection of the odd, the strange and the completely weird (not to mention the WTF-inducing). That being said, eBay<\/a> is the place where random oddities<\/a> are auctioned off on a daily basis. In the past, shrunken heads, lawn-mowed grass and even a subliminal message maker (!) have been sold on this website; though many of these claims are debatable. Nevertheless, a current listing spotted by Gizmodo<\/a> has a giant cracked glass stair<\/a> from an Apple store<\/a> up for sale.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

eBay user heylookitskibbs<\/a> \u201cpicked it up\u201d after the store replaced it. Why? Because he figured that one day he will be able to sell it on eBay for a whopping $2500.<\/p>\n

It’s from Apple Fifth Ave. in NYC. They have a huge spiral staircase you can see here: http:\/\/images.apple.com\/retail\/fifthavenue\/images\/fifthavenue_gallery_image4.jpgThey<\/a> replaced it with a new one after a customer dropped a snapple bottle on it and cracked it. I picked it up before it could be thrown out over a year ago, figuring it’s a collectible. When these are new, they cost 10K to buy from the German glass-makers. So, since it’s cracked I figure it’s worth at least $2500, considering the steps are all custom ordered.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Can\u2019t pay $2500? Well, the starting bid is $700, so you can get it for less via the auction. Happy buying!<\/p>\n
