Elvis keeps a close eye on Ebay

(Daily Post (Liverpool) Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)PSYCHIC Uri Geller reckons Elvis told him he was the winning bidder in the Ebay sale of the Memphis house Presley lived in before moving to Graceland. Geller performed a spoon-bending trick in Las Vegas for the singer in the 1970s and now collects Elvis memorabilia. Geller also has a paranormal fascination with the number 11 .

As the bidding closed "I felt intuitively I got the price it was exactly 11 on my mobile phone and suddenly the radio started playing an Elvis song. That was Elvis telling me we got the house," Geller said. It cost him pounds 479,500 - more than twice what the property is worth without the Elvis factor.

Meanwhile, I promised I would let you know the outcome of the auction for the "two per cent share of the Holy Grail" sale, as reported here last week. However, it would appear the Ebay police pulled the sale before it reached a conclusion. A thorough search failed to find a result, even though sold listings remain available for 15 days after the end of an auction. Seems like Ebay suffered a sense of humour failure.
