A US motorist pulled up for speeding at 110mph told police he was racing home to catch the end of an eBay auction.
Police say the man didn't say what he was bidding on but his car was full of Star Wars action figures, reports the Seattle Times.
James Garrett, of Fall City, near Seattle, was pulled over by police as he raced through Mount Baker Tunnel on Interstate 90.
He reportedly told a state trooper that he had to get home as he was late bidding on a coveted item and eBay was about to close the auction.
Trooper Dan McDonald said Garrett "didn't say what he was bidding on but the trooper said his car was filled with Star Wars stuff."
His car was impounded, with his Star Wars collectibles inside, and he was arrested on suspicion of reckless driving.
