I know, we have all hit rock bottom at one point or another.. Either with finances, personal relationships, self esteem.. The list is endless. The sad part about this is that there are sellers out there waiting to make a quick buck off of your personal pain by selling “haunted” items with the promise of brighter days ahead.

I have been researching the “haunted” items trend for two years now, right here on Ebay. Granted, there may be a few items that are legit, but most of these items are not. What I did in my research was look at the feedback of these “haunted” items sellers and I did a search for items by seller. My results were frightening. Ninety percent of these people are scammers. Isn’t it funny that the items are from a friend of a friend who knew the person who made these objects “magical”? For instance, one seller claimed that thier items came from a deceased medium.. The only problem is, the items kept coming and coming in an endless parade of nonsense. How many items can one deceased medium possibly “enchant”? Another seller claimed that thier items were from a rich sheik.. You must ask yourself if the story sounds fishy or not. Follow your gut instinct. Many of these “haunted” jewelry items are bought cheap at pawn shops, overseas bulk companies, online, and some even buy on Ebay and resell them as “haunted” items! Talk about shady!

Every sheik or medium will leave a paper trail, and if the seller is legit, they will be more than happy to tell you exactly who the original owner was. If you were a medium with all these items that would help mankind, would you give them to a friend to give to a friend to sell on Ebay? Probably not. These items would go into the estate and would be auctioned off by family members directly related to the person who owned them. One seller claimed that she got the “haunted” items from a personal friend of the deceased medium, but refused to say where the “medium” practiced. If this person was a true, good medium, then people would know about her or him right? With so many items coming from one “medium”, you must wonder if the “medium” owned a large storage building just bursting full of these “haunted” items. They keep coming and coming from the same seller, hundreds of items, they must have been stored somewhere right? How silly! Some sellers claim that they have a connection to a friend of a sheik or priest in another country and this is how they get the items. This is funny because Ebay is worldwide.. Why wouldn’t the person make a profit or reap the benefits of “extreme luck” themselves? Why would they ship large boxes of “powerful” and “haunted” items to the US for some person in Tennessee to sell and make a huge profit? It doesn’t make sense does it? Especially if the country is poverty stricken. Does the person in the other country not have a computer? Then how does the seller keep in touch with them? I saw one “haunted” angel statue that was a “vessel” for a fairy named chip. Two days later, I saw the same statue at Home Depot for $14.99. “Chip” however sold for over $200.00. One tip to remember is, if it looks like it was bought at the Wal-Mart jewelry counter, it probably was.

I find it amusing to search for “haunted” items on Ebay and read the descriptions. Some are downright silly! Similar to this: “This bracelet was owned by a fae queen named Celia. Celia called to the Egyptian god Anubis to enchant it and saturate it with his lucky vibes” or “This talisman is from a high priest who resides in the sacred Garden of Monchas with connections to the spectral plane of planet Zoomna. This talisman was worn by the high priest himself”. Some even claim that certain “haunted” itmes will increase bust size, or give you beauty! LOL, some of these sellers would be better off writing fantasy books or fiction books for teens. How they come up with these far-fetched stories is beyond me. And it saddens me that people believe them and thier insane stories… It is a shame.

Do you see what I am getting at? Scams are a dime a dozen on Ebay.. A lot of fraudulent sellers will say “look at my feedback!” in order to gain your trust that the items are indeed authentic. Anyone can leave feedback, and many of the real good ones that say “item is so powerful!” or “I can feel the energy!” or even “I won the lottery after buying your item!” are usually a favor from a friend to the seller, or even the seller leaving themselves feedback from another account, like a spouse or family member. In some cases, even friends and neighbors will “buy” items and leave feedback for a cut of the ending auction price.

So here you are, looking for some good luck, some money energy in your life or looking to gain some confidence. You end up on Ebay and see a “magic” ring or “haunted” doll vessel that promises all your wildest dreams come true. You buy the ring or doll and wait.. And wait.. The money never comes.. The doll is just some yard sale junk.. The ring was made in Korea in some factory… And you are out a couple hundred dollars. If you are naive enough, you just may win $5 on a lottery ticket and credit it to the ring or doll following through on the promise of wealth and luck. Or if you are smart, you will just know that luck and wealth are not purchased on Ebay in the form of a mundane object.

Beware!
