The image of the bucket was shared on Twitter by a user who wrote, "Just found this on Amazon and I don't know what to do."
This is not the first time when a normal product has been listed for whopping prices. Previously, a Sour Cream and Onion-flavoured potato chip Pringle was listed for £2,000 (Rs 1.88 lakh) for sale on eBay. The reason behind the whopping price was that it was "brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged" as per the seller.
