UPDATE: eBay seems to have taken down the book auctions.

O.J. on eBay.
There's a selling frenzy on of O.J. Simpson's canceled book "If I Did It." Here's a current auction, with the bid now over $60,000. Can you honestly say that if you had received a review copy you would not be trying to sell it? The question is: Who's buying? Or are these "fictitious bids to ruin auction"?

"If the book is pure shit -- you must bid on it!"
If that's not an Ebay hook line...
Purchase the book for an outrageous sum, and then declare that the act of paying that much money for said book is performance art. Sell book, packaging, ebay "receipt" to an art collector for even more than you paid for it. Very meta, and if you don't get it, well, don't ask.
The people bidding so much for this book are not doing so because they're curious our avid about its contents. They're doing so because it will be a rare and therefore valuable collectible, like a stamp with the King's head upside down that was quickly cancelled and is therefore scarce. If it is rare enough, it will end up being worth more than the highest bidder paid for it. The collectible book world is a little nuts.
