CLEVELAND -- A Cleveland man has put the skin on his head up for sale on eBay.

Jeremy Martin, 21, says he will tattoo the name and logo of the highest bidder on his bald head for a price.

His one-year rate is $60,000.

"I will not take less than that because I'm going to have a tattoo on the back of my head for the rest of my life," Martin said.

So far, 1,100 people have inquired about the space for rent. However, there have been no bidders.

"I don't think anybody wants to be the first person to try something out," Martin said.

For the $60,000, Martin promises an advertisement on his car, a personalized license plate and the head tattoo.

The auction ends on Thursday.

That wouldn't be too bad if it ended up being some product the guy really loves himself... Like say he loves Coca-Cola, and the Coca-Cola company would buy that "ad-space". Then it wouldn't be quite that bad.

But imagine if some product like Preparation H would put in a bid. Or some yeast infection cream or some shit... Then he'd be fucked.
