with 32 bids. WTF!!! :crazy:

[no_hypocrisy]

1. Let me put it this way: I wouldn't recommend it as a wise investment in

terms of potential rare book. $20,000 sounds like a few people are bidding for the sake of raising the price which will never be worth it. Someone's gonna get stuck with the damned thing if someone else doesn't bid on it.

2. That's hilarious.

I wonder who would buy it???

It is listed as fiction and non-fiction.

[terrya]

3. Some sick bastards out there.

Paying $20,000 for that disgusting piece of shit. Shame on them.

[RaleighNCDUer]

11. How do you know it is a disgusting piece of shit?

Have you read it?

[terrya]

12. The man is all but admitting that he did it.

But of course it's couched in vague language..."IF I did it". AND he admitted that he got paid for it.

That, to me, is a piece of shit. But of course that's only my opinion.

[RaleighNCDUer]

13. And how do you know that?

Have you read it?

I hear predjudice talking, here.

[terrya]

14. Nooooo....you are utterly, completely, totally off the mark.

You don't hear anything of the sort. Call me overtly sensitive, but the idea of cashing in on a horrible tragedy like this is a bit repellent. You know?

[mondo joe]

27. Why are you prejudiced against murderers?

[kanrok]

15. O.J IS a disgusting piece of shit

And yes, I am prejudiced...against criminals who get away with murder.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

23. LOL, NCevilDUer, that's pretty funny. I get your subtle irony, now.

:-) MKJ

[mondo joe]

25. Because writing a book about how you would have hypothetically murdered the mother

of your children - and gotten away with it - is such a sign of noble character.

:eyes:

21. It might be the family of Nicole Brown Simpson.

They might be buying it to look for something fishy in it.

4. I bought a HC copy of Hatfield's "Fortunate Son", the cancelled bio on Bush

back when I was working at a bookstore. Glad I did, because it's now considered a "rare book" by people who decide those kinds of things.

[NOLADEM]

5. Shills are likely betting this up.

Bids on items like this usually get banned before ending by ebay anyway.

I can only think of two sources who would want the books back. One is Fox and the other is any other news organization seeking a scoop on a story.

[JI7]

6. on the news they said EBAY wants to ban sales of it

on there but that it's going to take a while.

[upi402]

7. npb n/t

[bbinacan]

8. Hell, someday would have to pay

me 20k plus to accept it.

[Nicole]

9. New seller with zero feedback?

Smells like a scam to me.

[MercutioATC]

10. Zero-feedback seller...they might not even have the book.

It'd be interesting to see if the buyer gets anything for their $20k+

[mnhtnbb]

16. eBay's pulling these sales. Must be lightly staffed for turkey day

[tinfoilinfor2005]

17. Not just no.

Hell no.

For the same reason that I wouldn't rob graves. That's just disgusting.

[sakabatou]

18. Creeeepy

[InvisibleTouch]

19. Geez, and I can't wring 99 cents out of a Sports Illustrated...

...with OJ on the cover. Hmph.

[Raine]

20. $29,100 now!

With 39 bidders! :wow:

EDIT: corrected price, I had one 0 too many. :spank:

[Blue in Bama]

22. I can't afford THAT but

do any of yo internet savvy people think that this book or some excerpts might end up on the web? Hell, the PAris Hilton sex tape did, hahahaha.

[Raine]

24. I do

that book and the tape too will end up leaked out. Probably the Enquirer will publish it in a serialized version or something.

[karlrschneider]

26. The "seller" ended the auction ("NO LONGER AVAILABLE")

don't know when...

[MzNov]

28. Did you see the Ghostwriter on this was a witness at his trial...
