Perth eBay seller funney_dude has pulled off the impossible, and sold a Fart in a Jar yesterday for the princely sum of $3.11.

Here is the brilliant sales pitch:

Just imagine going out to your letterbox one day and finding a jar in your letterbox! But not just any jar, right before sending, I will fart in it. THAT'S A JAR WITH A FART for only... $2!! CHEAP!! THAT'S RIGHT PEOPLES, IT IS CHEAPER JUST FOR YOU!!! REVISED 7/9 BID FOR IT PEOPLE YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! FART IN A JAR.

A freak occurrence, I hear you say? Wrong. The same entrepreneur-in-the-making sold another Fart in a Jar (to a different bidder) for $2.75 last week. Market forces are already driving demand up!

<p>Aside from the obvious comment that this is grose, it&#39;s just not good economics. </p><p>Cost of Jar + time to break wind + time to set it up on ebay + govt tax (there must be a tax for even this - maybe income tax?) = more that $3</p><p>Use your entrepreneurial skills elsewhere I think funney_dude!</p>

<p>What an absolute waste of time money and effort!!!&nbsp; I could imagine kids thinking that it was hilarious though, and wanting to do it purely for the recognition to mates that they sold a &quot;Fart in a Jar&quot;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
