What I don't understand is that this auction started late yesterday afternoon. The story about this auction was written before the auction even started. Perhaps the seller and the press are in bed together, in an attempt to score some $$$$. No way will this transaction be valid in the end.

Description

Please help my 6 year old son find peace. In an effort to quell his fears, I am auctioning the ghost of my father (his grandfather). The winner will receive his well-used cane. I would like to ask you to write a letter after you've received the cane (and the ghost) to my son letting him know that he's there with you and you're getting along great. It is my hope that this will put an end to his restless nights. Thank you all for your help and heartfelt interest.
