Beckham Sales Bending Upward

David Beckham's move from the European football, er..soccer league to greener fields in the U.S. has caused Beckham-related items on eBay to pop. He joins the L.A. Galaxy for a five-year deal, reportedly worth $250 million, starting in August. Week over week, items sales jumped over 200 percent, including 100-item sale days on Friday (1/12) – the day after the announcement – and Sunday (1/14). He may bring in the dough, but based on eBay sales, wife Victoria, formerly Posh Spice, appears to wear the popularity pants in the family -- she outsold her hubby over the last two weeks on eBay, 800 items to 660.
