Ebay auction claimed to have Angelina Jolie's ultrasound picture

An Ebay auction was up briefly Tuesday claiming to have Angelina Jolie's ultrasound image for sale. Ebay pulled the listing from their site by the end of the day. A spokeman says, "This listing was being marketed as coming specifically from Angelina Jolie. There was no indication in the listing that she had given agreement to this."

The auction for the grainy ultrasound image with Jolie's first name and her physician's name blacked out had reached at least $500 when it was pulled.

I know better than anyone after writing about the Jolie/Pitt pregnancy in the last couple of weeks how rabid fans can be, but why on earth would someone want an ultrasound image of someone else's child. Even if it did belong to a celebrity (which I found incredibly doubtful)?

4. He's just riding other people's coattails to get cheap publicity for himself... We don't think he even cares about the bids on the auction. He's strictly out for attention, cheap thrills.... He's nothing but a cheat as there's no way Angelina & Brad would be passing out sonograms of the most precious part of their family to be auctions off on ebay!

5. I see he has already posted his website for all to see.
He actually copied this auction from another e-bayer. Although she wasn't using the name of angelina jolie.

Not even an original.

Stay away from this one. He sure knows how to stay 1 step ahead of e-bay.

Actually, this was the second time this auction was pulled. He is waiting once again for the golden palace to take the bait.

I think anyone that reads this should send something to the angelina jolie press agent.

Last time he was giving 50% charity for child abuse.

What is he trying to say?

Now it is for breast cancer?

I hope angelina wipes the floor up with him.

6. An ultrasound of the 5 month old Pitt-Jolie baby has been placed on e-bay.com. Within minutes it was purchased by Michael Jackson.
