In addition to four heavy cannons (including two and one-half barrages of standard ammunition), the shipment also includes six dozen single-shot longrifles.

| Jewels From emerald baubles to diamond-encrusted necklaces, this selection of assorted jewels is of the highest quality, both in terms of physical appearance and monetary worth. Delivered by master thief Jonathan Uhl, the jewels are a special one-time only item.

| Pirate ship A very special item available for bid is a functioning, recently-privatized sea-faring vessel that had previously belonged to the late Captain Cooper, a notorious ocean scourge who, in the last month, was tried for piracy and hanged in London. His ship, the Night Rambler, is a frigate of 10 guns and services 80 men at its optimum capacity. It was delivered to Ye Olde Ebay by an auction-friendly Q and shrewd Q agent of the crown's court. |

| Virgins (per woman) Available for bid are two dozen fresh young virgins, sold into servitude by their indigent families. Also available are two Spanish virgin sisters stolen away from their group during their great tour of the English countryside. These beautiful young ladies are the picture of purity, skin white like alabaster and bodily shape of the finest design. Bids will undoubtedly range in hundreds of pounds, due to the relative unavailability of ladies of chastity in London. |
Current Price: 80 pounds |
| Booty bag-o-choice Available for bids are four large, individually-sorted burlap bags full of recently-acquired pirate's booty.

| Gold doubloons Blood money! Many men were killed for this treasure in a sea battle with a now-sunken Spanish galleon.

Bids will most likely fall under actual monetary value of the coins. |
Current Price: 50 pounds |
| Treasure map This map of unquestionable authenticity is a highly desirable item up for bid.

Bidding on this item will be limited to shortened time period. |
Current Price: 25 pounds |
