How to find classic old eBay ads?

Some of you guys must have seen some of the funniest eBay ads ever that got sent around and bid up to crazy money. Foremost in my mind are the guy modeling his ex's wedding dress and the British guy selling a rusty old motorcycle frame. Both ads were so funny and well written that I believe the sellers were bombarded with job offers and marriage proposals. Is there some website out there that archives these ads? I know they're a few yrs. old by now, but I'd love to find them again.

My favorite was the "I will kick your ass" auction. The auction was for a personalized beating. It got pulled before it ended, I believe.
