A mysterious seller has posted an auction on eBay for a night with Andy Stitzer, a 40-year-old male with no... um, "experience" (wink wink, nudge nudge) with the ladies. The listing promises "a night out with Andy. Dinner, movie, conversation... And possibly the chance for something more? Who knows."

OK, OK. We'll let the cat out of the bag. The auction is actually a clever bit of movie marketing. It looks like one of those bizarre, man-sells-virginity-on-eBay stories but it's actually a listing for two tickets to the Hollywood premiere of The 40 Year-Old Virgin, a new movie starring Steve Carell as Andy Stitzer.

Reading the fine print of the eBay listing, you'll also see that the payment will be donated to a charity, Homeless Healthcare of Los Angeles, and no real hanky-panky is included. The bidding is currently at $33 with a little more than a day left in the auction.

So, if you'll be in the L.A. Area on Thursday, why not bid on our man Andy? As they say, "He's really an all-around quality guy AND he has an astounding action figure collection!"
