Well since our last Michael Jackson blog on June 26th, items listed on eBay have nearly doubled. Just a few days ago there were 31,000+ items up for BID or BIN and today there are over 61,000+ listings on eBay. Some of the collectibles are truly unique while others are trying to net in suckers.
My favorites are the Thriller Beat It Tour t-shirts for $190 or the LA Times newspaper for $10,000. Some people must think grieving fans are really gullible.
Here are some numbers for some of the more popular items listed:
5400+ Michael Jackson CD's
Surprisingly only 300+ Michael Jackson Autographs
6000+ Michael Jackson T-Shirts
800+ Michael Jackson Memorial T-Shirts
3500+ Michael Jackson Photos
2500+ Michael Jackson Vinyl
1500+ Michael Jackson Newspapers
15,000 Michael Jackson Records
3600+ Michael Jackson Books
These are all collector's item I believe. I also found this Michael Jackson comeback book that will surely become a valued collector’s item.
