In her convention speech last night, Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin said that she sold Alaska’s state jet on eBay. What many don’t know is that Palin is an eBay power seller who has sold thousands of items. While America may not be sure what to make of her, on eBay she has a 98% positive feedback rating. Here is a list of ten of her most bid-upon auctions:

Seafood anyone?
10. Giant plastic Alaskan king crab. Buy-it-now price: $200.00
9. Media scrutiny. In this recent auction, Palin tried get rid of some of the press attention on her that has been so damaging. Even though two celebrity bidders (strongly suspected to be Britney Spears and Paris Hilton) took the price up to six figures, eBay removed the auction after it became clear that Palin and her handlers could not control the media scrutiny surrounding her.
8. Stout band of Vikings. Palin sold off these mercenary Vikings when she decided to oppose abortion in cases of rape, pillage and if the mother is an opera singer.
7. Palin family heirloom ‘wedding shotgun’. This item was removed after several hundred bids because Palin realized she might still needed it if Levi gets cold feet.
6. Well-worn VHS cassette of the movie Election. The character of Tracy Flick — an ambitious, ethically-challenged sexpot — was used as a model for Palin’s meteoric political rise. This piece of political memorabilia sold to bidder ktotherove for nearly $10,000.
5. Ice palace carved by Eskimo slave labor. Palin spent millions of dollars of government earmarks on this ice palace, only to find out that “ice queen” was not a complement. Though it bid up to $12,000+, the Alaskan sun damaged it before it could be shipped.
4. Connections to corrupt Ted Stevens machine. Palin sold these just in time. The winner of the auction (or should we say loser), Jack Abramoff, is now under indictment.
3. Shrunken heads of her political opponents. Sold to make room in the garage for Todd’s new skimobile.
2. Bristol Palin’s unborn baby. The reserve was not met, so they are keeping the child.
1. Sculpture of Palin giving birth on a bearskin rug. The Alaskan State Senate would not allow this artist’s rendering of Palin’s preferred childbirthing method to be displayed in the State House so she auctioned it off. The winner was mccainestate6 and the price was a whopping $7M!
