Cool Cookie Jar Auctions on eBay - Star Wars, Harry Potter

I've always loved cookie jars, not sure why.  Reminds me of being at Grandma's and trying to sneak as many cookies without being detected.  Anyway I'm in the market for a cookie jar and decided to do a quick scan on eBay via getitnext and low and behold there are thousands of cool and strange cookie jars.  There are also some very expensive vintage cookie jars.  Below I've listed a quick sampling of some of my favorites (for various reasons).

Up first is this Harry Potter Cookie Jar, the bidding is fierce on this.   From the seller description: This is a wonderful cookie jar.  I got this jar at the Warner Bros. Store.  It is from the first Harry Potter movie "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone".  The total height is approx. 11" and the body is about 7 3/4" in diameter.  The jar is in excellent condition no nicks, chips, cracks or crazing.  This jar has never been out of the box until now.  Now we are getting ready to retire and need to clear out.  I will be auctioning some of my cookie jars over the summer.
Please calculate the shipping cost before you bid because cookie jars are heavy.  I charge  actual shipping plus $5.00 to cover the cost of my boxes and other shipping materials.

Alright, most of you know how much I love Star Wars.  But a stormtrooper cookie jar???  hmmm, would look a little funny on the counter.  For all you Star Wars fans check out these cool Star Wars cookie jars.

Next we have this clown cookie jar from mccoy.  Personally clowns freak me out and I'd never have this thing sitting on my kitchen counter but I'm sure there are clown fans out there that might love this cookie jar.  Here is the very descriptive item description from the seller:  Vintage cookie jar.  Very heavy.  paypal only please. 

For a buy it now price of $399.99 you might want to contact the seller and get some more details before bidding.  Aside from the clown when I think of traditional cookie jars like my grandmother had I think of McCoy.  McCoy has some of the finest examples of cookie jars, check out the vast McCoy cookie jar selection.

I think my search is complete.  What better way to keep the kids away from all my precious cookies than this Octupus Cookie Jar.  This thing would terrorize my children and will keep them at bay for a couple of years.  Of course added sound effects from me will keep the fear alive.   From the seller:  Raku Octopus Cookie Jar 14" x 11" This "Raku Octopus Cookie Jar" is a limited edition handmade clay jar with lid.
