LOS ANGELES, - A Los Angeles area eBay seller says he fetched a high bid of $999,900 for a Halloween mask resembling a woman acquitted of killing her 2-year-old daughter.

The item description of the latex mask of Casey Anthony, who was acquitted of killing her daughter, Caylee, said it was one of only nine "sculpted to precision for a parody video by enigmatic pop artist/sculptor Torro," KTLA-TV, Los Angeles, reported Thursday.

"Forget Freddy, Jason, Meyers, here's your chance to scare the *#&% out of everyone and win every costume contest with this amazing Tot Mom latex rubber mask, possibly the most frightening mask on the planet. And I can almost guarantee it's the 'only' Casey mask on the planet," the description said.

The buyer's identity was kept confidential by eBay, KTLA said.

That is actually a scary mask and a window into the soul of Casey Anthony...

When I sold on ebay a few years ago, you had to confirm your identity and be financially pre-approved to bid on a high priced item like this.

I think he has a good shot of collecting from at least one of the top bidders.

Grossness aside, I don't understand the price for this item. A top makeup artist can probably do a better mask for a few grand.

I recall that was the case when Rush Limbaugh auctioned off a complaint letter[fat PDF] to Clear Channel signed by a bunch of Donk senators. One of his listeners bought it for $2.1m, and that payment, along with a matching $2.1m from Rush went to the Marine Corpse Law Enforcement Foundation.
