This was obviously done for the free publicity that it garnered (note that he has a bunch of other stuff for sale).
From Google:
P.T. Barnum once said, “There's no such thing as bad publicity,” which is almost as good as Oscar Wilde's version, who put it like this: “There's only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”
Lesson learned. To get people talking about you and looking at your auctions, be sure to make a claim that is so outrageous that a crowd gathers. Genius!
