The "bizarre" niche of the collectibles industry seems to feed off of , more than anything else, the "shock affect".

  The LA Times, NY Times, Fox News and the list goes on, have all been reporting on a vial of Ronald Reagan's blood being auctioned in Britain.  Blood that was claimed to have been taken days after his assassination attempt.   Then about an hour ago I received a news flash that the auction had halted the sale of the vial , as the latest high bid was at $30,000.

Yesterday NPR Los Angeles requested an interview , even though I am not a collector or dealer of "body parts" .    Nevertheless, quite entertaining, particularly what one caller said during the interview.  Interview link is below.
