Fans of Kanye West seemed to be among the easiest to please -- with some of them believing that they can also be the luckiest by simply getting anything that would remind them of Kanye.
One fan had reportedly gone to the auction site eBay and posted a Ziplock plastic bag, which is purportedly filled with the air from a Kanye West show. Starting at a bid price of $5, the bag was able to reach up to $65,000 in total bid price before the post was pulled off from the site.
The seller, who was identified only as stangeedon1 in eBay, used the words "Kanye West Yeezus Tour Air For Sale" in describing the bag. He also added that the item was acquired by simply holding the bag open and sealing in the air. However, there was no evidence that would show which particular concert the air was from.
Several other eBay users have sold bags on the auction site, which they hope would earn them tons of money by claiming that the bags were filled with air from one of Kanye's shows.
One bag was up for grabs for $5,000. Another listing managed to earn 14 bids and reached a bid amount of $305. The bag's description said that it "possibly contains Kanye's breath." It didn't explain how the breath was caught and kept inside the bag.
The "successful" bidding on the bag has inspired a number of other users to have their own "bagged air" items on eBay. Some of the items include "Ziplock bag of air from Garth Brooks concert" and "Kanye West Concert Air-Infused Bay Leaves." The latter is said to have an opening bid price of $4,999.
Still, there was a different seller who posted under the "Buy It Now" tagline a bag that carried the description "Flatulence from Kanye." It costs only $5.
While some people may think these auctions have gone too far and seem to be a hoax, Kanye's celebrity wife, Kim Kardashian West, felt proud of the artist's influence.
"WOW he can sell anything! Lol RT @Femail: $65,000 for a bag of air from a Kanye West concert," tweeted Kim.
