Shoeless Joe Jackson’s Baseball Bat – $577,610
Having earned his moniker by famously running bases in his bare feet after his latest pair of shoes gave him blisters, legendary baseball player Shoeless Joe would go on to earn notoriety for slightly less savoury reasons. Namely, he and the rest of his team were accused of taking a bribe and fixing the result of the 1919 World Series. Still, his legacy seemed to have nothing but a positive impact on the value of his trademark baseball bat – AKA Black Betsy – which sold on eBay back in 2001 for an extraordinary $577,610. A very expensive eBay item and the single most expensive baseball bat ever sold.
