The Connect is faith/belief.

1)A laser pointer , which of course is concentrated light used to point out distant objects an analogy for how faith is needed to see what god has planned for us.
2)Jay Leno who has a Passion for vintage cars and motorbikes,and when he is driving one, he says, he feels god's touch or god's shade over him.
3) Pretzel shaped like the Virgin Mary, visible to those who want to believe or have faith.
4)Warren buffet who only buys stocks for companies, he himself uses or believes in.

Weird things sold on Ebay (that fetched a lot of money, i guess).

I confess, I googled.....

The Answer said...

The connect is indeed EBay, or famous items sold on EBay.

1) The first item ever sold on ebay (by the founder) - a broken laser pointer.

2) Jay Leno's Harley was auctioned for a huge sum to raise charity for 9/11 victims. http://www.cycleconnections.com/articledetail.asp?ID=529&TypeID=21

3) The famous pretzel that looks like Virgin Mary was sold for an outrageous sum. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/index.ssf/2008/02/eugene_radio_station_puts_virg.html

4) A buffet lunch with Warren Buffet for charity, was sold for 2.6 million, one of the largest auctions ever on ebay. http://www.luxuo.com/tag/warren-buffett

I was tempted to add the Pope's VW Polo, but that would have been a giveaway clue. http://www.life.com/image/52950452

Congrats truce (and not Dev). And bonus points to Angelus for an ingenious attempt!
