If you're looking for luxury on a budget this holiday season, the state of Illinois is making it a little easier this year.
The state is auctioning off everything from wedding ring sets to pearl necklaces, to rare coins, as part of its special "Silver and Gold Holiday eBay Auction."
All the items come from safe deposit boxes which have been abandoned by their owners for at least 10 years.
The money raised from the auctioned items is used to pay down the state's underfunded pension liablity.
The holiday eBay auction doesn't start until noon on November 23rd, and lasts until noon on December 14th.
There are already hundreds of items up for bid from previous auctions. To see the items click on the link below.
