One of the four original copies of the iconic Schindler's lists has reportedly hit the market, and bidding will start on eBay at a minimum of $3 million, CNET reported on Friday.

According to CNET reporter Leslie Katz, Auction has already started to sell a copy of the Schindler's list, which enumerates all the Jews businessman Oskar Schindler attempted to save from the Nazis by employing them at his factory.

The list shows 801 males names of Jews type written by Schindler's accountant and business partner Itzhak Stern on April 18, 1945, at the height of Nazi invasion during the Second World War.

History tells that Mr Stern actually made seven lists, but only four of them to have survived with one being subject of what could be multi-million dollar auction in the coming weeks.

California collector Gary Zimet said Mr Stern gave the list to his nephew, who reportedly decided to sell the iconic list to a private collector two years ago. Now, the collector is trying to earn cash out of it.

California collector Gary Zimet and his co-seller Eric Gazin believes selling the list on eBay will allow them to expand their market coverage and probably reach billionaires around the world who may be interested in buying a piece of history.

"We decided to sell the list on eBay because it has over 100 million worldwide members, and this is a global story," Mr Gazin told the New York Post. "There are billionaires using the site, wealthy celebrities. We like the platform."
