An anonymous German businessman had purchased the diaries on the eBay Web site for more than $500,000 several weeks ago. The German businessman decided to auction the diaries after securing the publishing rights. The diaries were from 1992 and 1994, and cover a range of topics, from Smith's love of octogenarian oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall II to her sex secrets to concerns about her eating and her body.

Smith's lawyer-turned-partner, Howard K. Stern, has alleged that the diaries had been stolen and should be returned to Smith's estate. Smith, 39, died Feb. 8 from a lethal combination of drugs.
Norwine said he had vetted the history of the journals and believed they were legitimately obtained by a celebrity memorabilia dealer in Los Angeles before going up for sale on eBay. After failing to sell at the auction - an unnamed recording company executive from Dallas has paid $59,750 for two diaries this week.
