eBay Title Keyword Games

The helmet that NASCAR drive Robby Gordon threw at Michael Waltrip is now back for sale on eBay (it was pulled after fake bidding reached $10 million).

But forget the helmet. You can now bid on the image of the helmet on a piece of toast.

Wait there's more. Here's someone selling an e-book of the original bid (probably some quickie ghost-written job)...and then someone is offering a helmet which they took pains to point out (in the title) is not the Robby Gordon helmet (just pure chance it winds up getting hits from people looking for the RG helmet of course)...there's also a couple more people selling Robby Gordon items that have emphasized in the title that it is not the helmet...oh and here's somebody selling a Johnny Cash poster--also helpfully title-qualified as "not Robby Gordon Helmet" (in case you were thinking "Hey maybe this Johnny Cash poster is actually a Robby Gordon helmet in disguise").
