To your attention - the most unusual items that are put up for auction and were purchased.
Churchill's false teeth
Yes, a couple of dentures was sold at an auction for the price of 23 thousand dollars. Of course, it would be better to give this money to the poor rather dubious purchase, but apparently bought this lot the person for whom Churchill means a lot.
Interestingly, now that the late Winston Churchill, in his own words, "lived in fear of losing his false teeth." He sells the lot of the great son of the dentist's personal policy. Dentures, as we see, are designed in a special way, and is ideally matched to their owners.
Giant yacht Gigayacht

To deliver on this item, the customer had to transfer half the cost of the yacht, which was done. This ship was designed by the architect Frank Mulder ships, which is a recognized authority in this area.
Needless to say that this yacht - VIP-class, specially equipped to create maximum comfort for the owner.

Occasionally, a product made from the alloy is as pure.

By the way, "a few years", which went to the collection of all this amounted to no less than 13 years. Rob was hunting for meteorites around the world.
Toilet John Lennon
