I must say the "most expensive items on ebay" is a bit of a dissappointment because all the listings are for items with 0 bidders. You never observe the market price! One could take the least expensive item on ebay, reprice it at $250 mil. and call it the most expensive. But that doesn't seem accurate.

If you do an advanced search all it takes is clicking the little box for completed items listing to see the auctions that have ended. The most expensive things that had bids were a painting by Helen Frankenthaler ($360,000) and a custom built show semi-truck ($275,300 but below the reserve price).
It looks like html works so here are the highest price completed auctions. Most were classified listings again but there were at least 2 sales on the first page.
