Alibaba, the enormous Chinese e-commerce company, is about to file for an IPO in the U.S.

The two most popular Alibaba websites — Taobao and Tmall — are Chinese marketplaces and rather inaccessible if you don’t know the language, but there’s also Alibaba.com, an English site for sales between importers and exporters in more than 240 countries.

Alibaba.com has been known to sell different types of well-disguised counterfeit goods. Not only that, but a lot of the stuff on the site is just straight up bizarre or oddly labeled (we found quite a few normal products that for some reason had the phrase “hot” or “girl” tacked onto them).

We dug around Alibaba.com, and here are some of the gems we found:

You can find these Buddha-shaped pears for only $12 for a set.

Or how about a worm train for $30,000?

Though this product is marketed as an inflatable “castle,” it looks a lot more morbid than that…

Alibaba

Unfortunately, the minimum order on this delightful mask is 1,200 pieces.

It’s the description of this item that weirds us out: “Purederm Exfoliating Footmask leads to disgustingly enjoyable peeling session and lovely feet.”

Alibaba

This guy is selling twins? Nope, just the leather. Interesting marketing tactic here.

Alibaba

Supposedly, you can buy these living clam and rag worms.

Alibaba

The strangest part of this big bad wolf costume is why the merchant blurred out the model’s mouth.

Alibaba

Honestly, we’re a little doubtful that these “inflatable walking on water shoes” would work, but we’re into the idea.

Alibaba

Believe it or not, this is a pair of men’s underwear.

Alibaba

The anti-flame armored suit only costs only $200.

Alibaba

Heard of a barf bag? Alibaba one-ups that concept with the barf bib.
