“I’m selling an old pair of my shoes. I’ve John Hancocked the left shoe. Will anyone buy an old stinky pair of shoes? I don’t know. lets wait and see.”

So wrote Mac DeMarco on the eBay listing for an auction of an autographed pair of his sneakers, donated to benefit Willie Mae Rock Camp for Girls. And, well, yes, someone did, in fact, buy his old stinky shoes. And they paid a whopping $21,100 for them.
