Alessandra Mussolini, a former showgirl turned MP, said she immediately informed the police when she found out.

The listing, on auction site Ebay, reportedly showed images of a wooden container and ampoules of blood.

Ebay, which does not allow the sale of human matter on its site, said that the listing was removed within hours.

The initial price requested for the material was 15,000 euros ($22,000; £13,000).

    So this rich old guy calls the famous surgeon: “I hear you’re now doing brain transplants. I’m not as quick as I used to be, so what can you do for me?”

    “Well,” says the surgeon, “I could get you a CEO’s brain for 1 million dollars.”

    “Hmm, what else have you got?”

    “There’s a physicist’s brain here for 1.5 million.”

    “Interesting, but what else?”

    “I’ve also got a tenor’s brain, for 10 million.”

    “TEN MILLION? Why is a tenor’s brain worth that?”

    “Well, you see, it’s never been used.”

    (Sorry, and one of my favorite musicians and musical experts is a tenor; but that’s the tale Peter Schickele tells.)

    So, a lousy twenty-some grand for Mussolini’s brain? Should cost 20 million.
