Albuquerque Woman Puts "Soul" up for Sale on eBay
 

An Albuquerque, N.M. woman has offered to sell her soul on eBay. She hopes to get $2,000 for it.

Lori N. was a passenger in a car struck by a drunk driver in 2007 where she suffered from a stroke, a broken, hip, broken pelvis, leg, collarbone, sternum, ribs and a collapsed lung.

As she can´t work anymore as a freelance writer because of her broken body, she hopes her soul can be saved. "I don´t feel good. I´m near the end of my rope. I really am," she said. eBay has yet to comment on the unusual listing.

If I remember correctly someone has tried to sell their soul on eBay before and the site removed it because they state you must be providing something tangible.

I´m sure she believes her soul is the only tangible thing she has left. It´s a sad situation. People who drink and drive need to take notice.

  I thought..  
 
If you take the biblical implications literally, then selling your soul would be the opposite of trying to get it saved.. Right?
I mean, how else do you get the phrase "I sold my soul to the devil."
Now me personally, I don´t want to buy it, but I´d like to know how she is going to sell her soul and if she is going to be able to seperate it from her body, or is her body a ´perk´ of the deal?
And I went to the link and watched the video report, she can walk and carry paperwork, how come she can´t manage a freelance writing position?

This is no different from selling toast on eBay that somebody imagines to have an image of an icon on it.

Actually, there is a difference:
The toast has no soul.
