You can get some pretty good deals on eBay -- but you can't always get as a good a deal as this: A teenager in the UK won an auction for a PS2 on eBay. The PS2 was supposed to come with two games, and he won the auction for £95. The PS2 was sent to him in the mail, but not the games.

He probably didn't mind not getting the games though, because, in their place, was a big stack of cash. Bundled in the parcel was £44,000 (about $90,000 US).

Police investigated. They are currently holding the stack of cash under the proviso of the Proceeds of Crime Act. It is not everyday £44,000 cash gets mailed to someone out of the blue, so they are looking into the matter. But the local law officers have given the police until the 22nd of September to either get to the bottom of the incident, or the teenager will be able to apply the Police Property Act to reclaim the money.

An eBay spokesperon said that "the contents of this parcel were somewhat unusual, and we will assist with any inquiries the police may wish to make."
