This has to be the creepiest "pipe stand" I have have seen in an eBay listing. Someone should have asked if the stand was anatomically correct.

Here is a sample from the listing:

I saw that one too. Jimmy Fallon has a bit on the Tonight show where they use prosthesis to act out scenes.

That's what it reminded ME of.

That's funny. I did not make that connection.
I would be afraid to buy the pipe. What if the stand wants it back?! [8O]
No kidding. Those nails could do some damage.

Yeah, caught that one, too, recently. The creepy factor comes in, I think, in that if you don't look too closely, it seems like a real hand! But, a second glance and something's "off." Hehe. Nice pipe, though. Wonder if the creepiness will affect the final bid?

Someone recently was using a "model", who appeared to be a somewhat elderly woman in a negligee. It made tehe rounds, I'm not sure it helped sell pipes......

It may be creepy, but you gotta admit, it comes in handy...
Ok, that was terrible..

Maybe the seller works in QC for Real Doll as seen on HBO, and takes home some of the rejects?

I am glad I was not alone in finding this creepy. I am glad I missed the listing ssjones mentioned, though I am not sure which "prop" is actually creepier.
