Yes they are:
"This is my lucky ball. I've never lost a game playing with this ball. I really don't want to part with it, but times are tough. My oldest daughter is planning an extravagent wedding with the reception being held at the most expensive restaurant in town. We need to raise cash quickly. We are also sending our son on a missions trip to Asia. We hope to raise the international awareness of billiards around the globe and get him off his lazy @#$. It is time for him to see how hard the rest of the world has it. . ."
This ball was on eBay a while ago for $12k I think it was.

He'll make a fortune if he sells them all then??  Speaking of bizarre ebay auctions, check this one out. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ABERDEEN-AITKENS-ROWIE-Buttery-Morning-Roll_W0QQitemZ9509783255QQcategoryZ60824QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemThis was a novel idea by a local guy to sell an Aberdeen delicacy called a buttery.(flat, salty, buttery roll) These sell for around 24p, but the auction went for £620 which went to charity. The response was phenominal and was all over the papers and radio up here. Have a look at some of the questions and answers, but you may find it hard to translate as most people have typed in Aberdonian!! What a laugh! This was genuine and the winning bidder presented the cheque for £620 to the Archie foundation. Anyone else seen anything like this on ebay?

Mmmmm.... Smokies!!!
Did anyone see that website where the guy said he'd swap trade up a little red pencil for absolutely anything better?
Initially he swapped it for a rubber band or something and then put the rubber band up for trade... He kept trading it up until at last count he had a "free house for a year!
Anyone got the link to that?
