Pharma Bro Shkreli Selling His $2M Wu-Tang Clan Album

Martin Shkreli, the former drug-company executive dubbed the most hated man in America for hiking up prices on life-saving medicines, is selling his $2 million Wu-Tang Clan album. Just a month after he was convicted of securities fraud, Shkreli listed the Once Upon a Time in Shaolin album on eBay with a starting price of $1. Bidding quickly hit $56,000 in the auction set to run through Sept. 15. The record was the only one sold by the rap group, and Shkreli butted heads with its members after releasing snippets of it online to celebrate President Donald Trump’s election victory. Shkreli claims he will give proceeds from the auction to “medical research,” though he did not provide any further details. “I am not selling to raise cash—my companies and I have record amounts of cash on hand,” Shkreli wrote on eBay. He also offered a disclaimer to potential buyers: “At any time I may cancel this sale and I may even break this album in frustration.”
