    I sold a fake pound coin, which an American coin collector bought - went for about 80p, plus postage to the US.

    I also sold a box of breakfast cereal I bought in France, just for the name ... Choco Crack!

    I think those are probably the strangest things ...

    Yes, last Tuesday. I haven't caught up with her yet to ask how it went though.

    So someone paid £200 for the privelage of a date? If that was me, I'd expect sex for that price...

    £200 was to pay for dinner, with anything left over going to charity. Auction specifically stated no extras included. ;)

    There's a bit more to it than I originally mentioned - she was on a dating rampage over january/february, trying a different dating method every day, in the hope of finding someone special to spend valentines with. She kept a blog of all the dates too, and she was on Radio 5 talking about it.
