Elvis Presley's Pill Bottle Fetches $2,640

Elvis Presley proved he is still a star attraction by attracting $2,640 for one of his prescription pill bottles at auction yesterday.

The price was made even more extraordinary considering the bottle was in fact empty - although this was due to the police, rather than Elvis� well-known pill-popping capabilities.

The CEO of Julien�s Summer Auction, Darren Julien, explains, �We'd planned to sell the bottle with the pills, but the Los Angeles Police Department told us it would be a federal crime to do it, so sad to say we had to remove the pills.�

A gold-plated gun belonging to the legendary singer went for an even bigger price, with a bidder at the Beverly Hilton Hotel shelling out $28,800 for the weapon � which was probably empty too.
