A jar of dirt from Stratford, Ontario is the talk of Twitter today thanks to one enterprising Canadian who put it up for sale.

But for a starting bid of $39.99 US, this is no ordinary jar of dirt; It's Bieber dirt -- soil sourced from the hometown of Justin Bieber himself.

EBay seller 'thatsridonculus', who hails from Kitchener, promises the dirt was collected personally from the pop star's home town "with love" and includes a certificate of authenticity with the package.

According to the listing, the soil is sanitized and safe for transport to be shipped anywhere in the world. It comes in a vial adorned with a bejewelled "J" for Justin.

The dirt was put up for auction on November 13 and as of Tuesday morning had two interested bidders with undisclosed offers. The auction was set to expire on December 13, but the listing is now closed.

Bieber clearly has very passionate fans, like this Belieber who tweeted about the dirt from Russia.

While the seller hails the Bieber dirt as "great for crafts, inside pendant jewellery, scrapbooking & more!" most of those who aren't hardcore Beliebers are begging to differ.

I lose faith in humanity that this exists on eBay. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Justin-Bieber-Collectible-100-Real-Soil-from-Hometown-Stratford-Ontario-Canada-/281022792865?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item416e4384a1&_uhb=1#ht_4617wt_956 http://pic.twitter.com/qfBPfUweAndrew Kaczynski
