Celebrity spoon bender Uri Geller has purchased Elvis Presley's home on eBay according to a BBC News article. Uri paid $905,100 on eBay for the home which he plans to restore and turn into a museum for Elvis.
"We are unbelievably pleased. This is a piece of history," said Geller, a former friend of Michael Jackson.
Geller met Presley in Las Vegas in the 1970s when the rock 'n' roll star asked him to perform his spoon-bending trick.
"As the clock closed on the bidding [on] Sunday, I felt intuitively I got the price," Geller said.
Suddenly the radio started playing an Elvis song. That was Elvis telling me we got the house."
Geller, who bought the house with two others, said he hoped to take children on tours of the restored property and eventually turn it into a museum.
