As reported earlier on shortnews, Andrew Fischer, from Omaha, Nebraska placed an auction on eBay advertising his forehead as a "billboard". The auction has now ended and the highest bid was $30,000.
Fischer, 20, plans to use the money raised for college, although the winning bid has not yet been proved as authentic. Strange auctions on eBay often attract spoof bids.
When Fischer placed the auction, his mother was more than surprised. However after seeing the media attention thought he was "thinking outside the box".
