LONDON, U.K. – Mar. 30 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — The car that drew international attention and broke eBay records with over 10 million visitors to its auction page in May 2005, is now going to be put back on the auction block by GoldenPalace.com, the winners of the now famous collectible.
In what was easily one of the most phenomenal events in Internet history, the car which once belonged to Cardinal Josef Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI, was won by online casino GoldenPalace.com for an impressive EUR188,938.88. *(Photo Caption: Infamous Pope Benedict XVI Mobile, selling for charity.)
The seller, Benjamin Halbe, 21, bought the vehicle without knowing its’ history. It was only when Halbe obtained the car’s registration documents confirming Josef Ratzinger as the former owner that he realized the truly blessed nature of his purchase.
GoldenPalace.com is excited to re-list this holy vehicle, in what surely will be another spectacular event. The auction will start on Saturday March 31st, 19:00 GMT, with a starting bid of only 0.99. Search for item number 280099096259.
