Ok, forget the Holy Grilled Cheese Pan being sold on eBay. Mother of five Terri Iligan put her name, “Terri Iligan”, up for sale on eBay, agreeing to give up the name Terri Iligan, and adopt whatever name the highest eBay bidder wanted her to adopt.

And someone bought it!

For more than $15,000!

You really can sell anything on eBay!

Terri’s name was purchased by the Golden Palace Casino for $15,199, and now Terri Iligan shall forever more be known as, I kid you not, GoldenPalace.com.

Take care, Terri, because the next call will be from the eBay income tax man.

Iligan..er..I mean Palace.com, got the idea when she wanted to raise money to send one of her children to the same golf school which Tiger Woods attended. She explained “To my kids and to my husband, I will always be Terri.”

To Aunty she’ll always be “nutcase”. Er…sorry, that’s Nutcase GoldenPalace.com.
