ELVIS’ FACE IN A POTATO CHIP
October 11th, 2009
Found by: Amy on Ebay
“GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN”
Looking over at eBay, I see someone selling a potato chip with the face of Jesus for $1,000, and someone else selling a heart-shaped chip for $4.99 (not $5, mind you, this is a bargain!).
So selling representachips is apparently a thing. And why not? You buy a bag of chips, enjoy the oil and salt, and maybe, just maybe, you find the holy grail – a Miley Cyrus chip. Much tastier than the lottery.
Shipping a $10,000 Elvis chip has to be tricky, though. Do you think UPS will let you insure it for that?
I don’t recall, was Elvis a hydrocephalic with a chin so pointy that it could have cut glass?
don’t you have to bid higher than the price already specified? because it says “please bid 10,000.00 or higher” but its already at 10,000.00
this doesn’t make sense to me.
Hallelujah! Elvis has returned to us! In crisp form!
Looks more like a Jay Leno chip to me.
see now; when I look at it from the left, I see Jesus. So this chip is a real bargain!!! 2 icons for the price of one! Someone snap it up….uh, not literally, that would be tragic……
Oh, but the shipping IS free!
It looks like a duck foot.
At least the shipping is free!
The hair is all wrong, there are no glasses… this doesn’t look at all like Elvis Costello.
I totally agree that it looks like Jay Leno.
Not with the first bid you don’t, no. The seller sets a minimum first bid and you can bid just that amount if you want.
Oh and it looks like a ducks foot to me too, lol
@ meagan: That’s cause it’s a starting bid. Nobody has (or will, hopefully) bid on it- so the starting bid is 10,000. If someone had already bid, you would have to bid more than 10,000.
Also, I agree- at least this chip has free shipping! Because whoever has 10,000 to waste on a chip that looks half eaten defiantly won’t have 5 bucks to spare for shipping. All I can say is it better have premium packaging.
I agree, definitely Jay Leno, not worth $10,000
Perhaps I should tell the bakery down the street about this. They only charge 5 bucks to put elvis on a cake.
looks sorta like a mushroom….
Funny how people choose what faces they want to see in things like this. Most people see a water stain on the wall and claim it’s the Virgin Mary. But I really can’t see Elvis in this, not the young rock & roll Elvis nor the older, bloated, drug-addled Elvis.
It looks like a slice of pizza to me.
looks like howard the duck
holy shit, that potato chip looks just like a pringle. fuckin’ nuts!!
I think I’ll buy $10,000.00 worth the potato chips and take my chances that way. At least I can eat the crummy ones and I may get lucky and find Jesus.
…5 people gave this a thumbs down and by extension apparently think $10,000 is a fair price for a potato chip…?
So let me get this straight: Jay Leno looks like a duck’s foot..? Hmm.. maybe so. $10,000 is a bit steep though. I’d only be prepared to go to $8,000 at a push.
