Casey Anthony Mask Fetches Nearly $1 Million on eBay

Posted: July 28, 2011

casey-anthony-mask-ebay-auctionApparently the public’s thirst for all things related to Casey Anthony knows no bounds as a latex mask resembling the recently acquitted “tot mom” sold on eBay for nearly $1 million.

In the item description of the latex Anthony mask, the seller said it was one of only nine “sculpted to precision for a parody video by enigmatic pop artist/sculptor Torro.”

“Forget Freddy, Jason, Meyers, here’s your chance to scare the *#&% out of everyone and win every costume contest with this amazing Tot Mom latex rubber mask, possibly the most frightening mask on the planet. And I can almost guarantee it’s the ‘only’ Casey mask on the planet,” the eBay description read.

The mask itself shows a relatively expressionless Anthony – a look that she became famous for as she stood on trial for the the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee – staring straight ahead, lips and mouth closed and her hair tied back in her signature pony tail.

The winning 105th bid, which was placed on Wednesday at 6:33pm EST, was totaled at $999,900. The buyer’s identity was kept confidential by eBay for obvious reasons –  he/she has more money than sense.

Update: Kudos to the winning bidder, who apparently “up-bid” the mask with the sole intention of preventing the seller from profiting off the death of a child.

    why are people feeding this person the attention she needs! Her life sentence is to be deemed insignificant. The justice system has done it's job, whether we like it or not. Let it go, it's done.

  2. HA! HA! When the owner gets confused for the real one and gets stuck.

  3. it looks exactly like her.

  4. the buyer's feed back was neutral and he put, quote, "You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to profit off a childs death!

  5. why would anyone want something that nlooked like a murderer? someone has more money than they do sense.

  6. I agree with you Mary

    I looked at the ebay seller's identity and the winning buyer posted this under the seller's feedback forum "You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to profit off a childs death!"

    It seems they are not really buying the mask, but voicing their disgust. Still the seller is despicable. Guess what, tomorrow there will be hundreds of masks available :(

  8. What kind of moron has a Million dollars to throw away on a piece of rubber that will eventually rot?

  9. You would think that anyone who's managed to make a million dollars could think of something better than trash to spend it on. Like the man said , you cant fix stupid.

    I wouldn't pay a dime to see her, let alone buying her face mask for a million bucks. Well, at the end of the day, I would NOT give a single candy to any kid, wearing her face mask who shows up at my door on Halloween.

    I hope they will make numbered prints of the mask as I can't afford the original.

  21. I still do not believe it go for one million.

  22. if I had her mask id fill it with bullet holes a face of a killerrrrr.

  23. You people are ignorant and need a frickin life. Go help a child and stop dwelling on this.

  24. why didn't that person put the money to good use like feeding the poor, sheltering the homeless, what a waste.

  25. THIS IS A WAY FOR THE BUYER TO GET THE MONEY TO CASEY, BY COMMING UP WITH A SCHEME…SHE WILL BENIFIT FROM THE SALE, BECAUSE IT IS HER LIKENESS…TO THE PERSON THAT BOUGHT THIS MASK….YOU ARE GIVING CHILD KILLER'S A REASON TO KILL…THEY CAN MAKE MONEY OFF OF A SICK A@@@ FOOL WITH MONEY…I HOPE YOU GROW LONG EARS AND SCREAM LIKE A DONKEY….

  26. PLEASE EVERYBODY REMEMBER THE BABY…REMEMBER CAYLEE…RIP BABY DOLL!

  27. creepy creepy creepy…. but hey, it is a halloween mask, right?

  28. what did the mask say when she came home day after day for 30 days without her daughter, to her parents?

  29. The person who won the bid has no intention of buying it. The bidder has left feedback saying "You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to profit off a childs death!" The writer of this story should check his facts before publishing any article. It took me less than five minutes to find all the details.

  30. How is this possible? She kills her child and her mask sells for $1 million dollars. I don't care if she was acquitted for her accused crime but the facts still remain that she had something to do with it. The justice system has failed.

  31. anyone who comes to my house trick-or-treating as Casey Antony won't get a candy wrapper from me!

    SICK, SICK, SICK AND SCAREY THAT THIS WOULD EVEN HAPPEN…..SHE WILL BE BACK IN JAIL………..FOR SURE…A TIGER NEVER CHANGES THEIR STRIPES………..UNLESS THAT PERSON HAS A 360 DEGREE TURN FOR JESUS CHRIST, AND POSING FOR HUSLER MAGAZINE IS CERTAINLY A REVELATION!

  38. Why hasn't anyone shot her yet? Why hasn't anyone shot those lawyers of hers yet? Where are those JURORS addresses released yet?
    They show plenty of pic's of Casey(the ANIMAL) Laughing and DRINKING BEER while a little (CAYLEE) GIRL lies beneath the dirt.
    and will NEVER drink a SODA ever again! We have LOW LIFES walking around offering her MONEY to pose naked or tell her story or write a book , UGH! IT MAKES ME SICK TO HEAR AND SEE THIS!
    I would really like to see someone knock that smile off her face!
    Where is the DEVIL when you need him to take a DARK SOUL back to his underground home with him.

  39. the kids don't get scared this halloween, the parents do! hahah and everybody calm down! jeez I mean, yeah, she got away with it but we can't do anything about it! I'm tired of her being on the news 24/7. get over it already!

    I wish I had thought of that first.

  41. This all makes me sick…this girl is a murderer!!! Hey Tony!!

  42. Really, a child killer and people want add money to her bank account, so sad, give her no attention.

  43. You know I find it funny that people out there really take things too far.So somebody made a mask of Casey Anthony, so that means anybody who wears it deserves to be assaulted.Great thinking people, im pretty sure any number of you who decided to beat up or shoot somebody wearing this mask will end up in jail.I am also pretty sure your assault charges and/or possible murder charges would not be acquitted.Those of you wanting to do criminal things to those who support this are no better than Anthony herself and I am ashamed that people in this country find it that everything is their business and its their business to take the law into their own hands.Violence solves nothing and if you are willing to go to jail for assault over something as stupid as a Halloween mask then you are just as stupid as Casey Anthony as well.

    I find it impossible to believe that someone would pay nearly $1 million dollars to dress up like a murderer.

  46. Creepy looking thing. She has certainly become the new face of death.

  47. THIS IS SICK…SICK SICK….SICK…SICK! WHAT GOOD COULD BE DONE WITH THAT KIND OF MONEY.SO MANY FOLKS COULD OF BEEN HELPED> PEOPLE HAVE LOUSEY PRIORITYS.

  48. What the "article" does not acknowledge is that most "bids" that get up into that stratosphere are never actually paid.

  49. I don't believe it for a minute that the high bidder is legit. I just pray that Casey does not profit off of Caylee's death. She is Caylee's Mom and I have never seen one ounce of grief from Casey. It is all about Casey in her eyes. It disgusts me!

  50. cant believe people support this killer…..that $ could have went elsewhere………sorry caylee..

  51. For a million dollars the real Casey Anthony probably would have come over and polished your knob.

  52. It makes me sick that people are profitting off of this tragedy. What idiot would pay $1mil for something so stupid? Such a disrespect to Caylee's memory. Totally disgusted.

  53. in related news, I now plan to start a face mask business……………

  55. Everyone here are idiots, you can't condemn someone for buying or wearing the mask. If you don't like being able to have the right to wear a mask of anything then you need to leave America. If you wore a mask of anything else and someone found it offensive you would cry foul. I'm glad she got off, I like seeing sensitive pricks like yourself get all bothered over a constitutional RIGHT that if it was you, you would want the same treatment. By the way it was the investigators fault that they didn't find the evidence needed to convict her and if it was my kid that got killed……. well I wouldn't kill my kids so it wouldn't matter.

  57. Ok this whole thing is stupid she was found not guilty in a court of law but yet all anyone wants to talk bout is making fun of Casey Anthony if she did it she has to live with it for the rest of her life and she has to answer to God but all of yall want to make her your top subject instead of all this stuff grow up and get a life and worry bout your own life all I can do is pray for you and her.

  60. Awful! Please tell me she didn't benefit from any proceeds on this……

  61. "dislike!!"

  62. I can't beleive that anyone would even want to wear something like this "omg what r u thinking" if u can't think of your self then atleast think of Caylee the beautiful little girl gone forever put your money to something useful like a charity for abused children a million dollars would go along way for a child in need. Think before u spend.

  63. This is how sick of a world we live in. Some idiot just won the auction on Ebay for this Casey Mask, and for how much! $999,900.00 – That's right, wasted almost a million on this. Sick sick world!

    What's with the Ecstasy pupils? Doesn't really look as real as I thought it would, for that price. Wax museum quality, I would expect..this-not even close. Huge eyes?

  66. that's hilarious, someone payed a million bones for something they could have gotten for thirty bucks in October. 1. its not that great of a mask. 2. in this snarky day and age you know there will be Casey Anthony masks for sale in halloween shops everywhere or at the very minimum on online specialty costume sites. A million dollars? you have to be kidding me.

  67. WHY IS EVERYONE GIVING THIS PIECE OF SHIT CREDIT AND WHY IS EVERYONE STANDING BY HER SHE KILLED A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL SHE IS A LIER AND A MURDERER WAKE THE FUCK UP AMERICA WHY SHOULD SHE GET ONE DIME HELL ONE MILLION DOLLARS TO TELL HER STORY FUCK ALL OF YOU I HOPE YALL CAN SLEEP GOOD AT NIGHT KNOWING YOU MADE MONEY OFF OF THIS MURDERING BITCH.

  68. I'm sorry my bemusement has kind of turned into anger. A million dollars is insane who bought this piece of junk? I barely make jack and this moron threw away a million dollars for a low quality mask? WTF? Its not even a blow my mind likeness in quality, with a beehive wig it could easily be an Amy Winehouse mask too. This is crazy that a person can be so cavalier with their money to buy this for that price. The uber rich are so out of touch with reality its mind numbing.

    LOL! so this really intrigued me since I have an ebay account. I went on ebay to see this mask that sold for $999,900. However, even though the bidding ended at that amount, the buyer never actually purchased. They left feedback saying "You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to profit off a childs death!" So the seller never actually made any money! :D so everyone CALM DOWN!

    This whole thing just needs to end… seriously… the Casey Anthony verdict is done and over with. Get over it. Innocent lives are taken everyday, including babies, by people that are their FAMILY. It's very sad and tragic, yes… but I finally got internet access back three weeks ago. For 3 weeks, my Facebook posts were FLOODED with shit about Casey anthony. I didn't even know about this until I got internet back. Who knows how long this has been ACTUALLY circulating around. It's probably one of the major reasons I deleted FB. To stop hearing about this. I stopped watching the news because of it. It's old. Unless you're their family, you should move on with your life instead of making something that isn't even your concern YOUR drama. C'mon people! And by the way… not a single thing I said was disrespectful. So if you have a problem with this, get over it and I'd appreciate if you kept your vulgar comments towards me to yourselves, as I could've been a lot more truthful and explicit with this post. Thank you :)

    Um dumb sh*t like this shouldn't even be news unless there is confirmation that the buyer actually paid for the auction. If you look at the feedback from the "buyer" to the seller, it is neutral and mentions that he should be ashamed for trying to profit off Caylee's death. Of course the over-paid idiots that write these stories don't bother to actually check these things and apparently neither does the average person that reads these articles. The only people that should be ashamed are the ones that actually believe that this seller will actually get the payment of the nearly 1 million $ that the auction ended at. So now that we know it isn't true and no one seriously bought this thing, let's stop bitching, move along, and rant about something of some actual importance!

  75. I am so ashamed that anyone that has a million dollars would buy this trash. We have starving children in our own country. Homeless people. Couldn't you do anything good like cancer research, anything but this. I have bid on Ebay forever, I cannot believe they would be involved in anything like this. Casey Anthony killed her daughter, and you want to wear this REAL monsters face. I pity you.

  88. such a stupid story. I guarantee no one would pay a million for this. The bids are there but has the payment hasn't been made. If you look at the bidding history on ebay it jumps from 50000 to 700000 and by a person who has less than 5 history. Such a stupid story to get people to read.

  89. that's messed up really? does this society have to go that far? whoever design and made this was messed up in the head and has no sense of respecting a child's death.
