Store sells items recovered from lost luggage

The Unclaimed Baggage Store in Scottsboro, AL sells items found in unclaimed luggage for which the airlines were unable to locate an owner. From novelty items like a 40 carat emerald to hardcover books, clothes and travel pillows, the city-block-long store retails everything you might imagine showing up in an unclaimed suitcase. They have a web-store, as well. Link (via Consumerist)
