Martin Shkreli’s One-of-a-Kind Wu-Tang Album Listed for Sale on EBay
The disc owned by the convicted pharma executive will cost you at least $100,000. And counting.
The one and only copy of Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, an album by the Wu-Tang Clan purchased by former pharmaceutical executive-turned-convicted criminal Martin Shkreli, was listed for sale on EBay at a deep discount to the $2 million he paid for it.
The purported sale appeared on the digital marketplace late Tuesday evening. Its authenticity couldn’t be immediately verified, and Shkreli’s lawyers declined to comment, but the sale was also noted on the Facebook page associated with Shkreli. On EBay, the ad includes his photograph holding the album along with a note that included Tuesday’s date and the words “Selling WTC album.” The listing describes the album as “like new,” and at the time of publication, the bid price was $100,000.
