Twitter CEO Elon Musk laid off employees after his takeover of the social media platform in one of the measures that he took to cut costs. After the $44 billion buyout, Elon Musk also instructed Twitter's teams to find over $1 billion in yearly infrastructure cost savings by reducing cloud services and extra server space, Reuters had reported.

Now Elon Musk plans to sell Twitter headquarter items aimed to support the company financially by garnering extra cash. Elon Musk is prepared to auction off items from Twitter's headquarters on January 17, CNN reported. The auction will include items and souvenirs from the company's headquarters in San Francisco.

The items that will be up for sale by Heritage Global Partners are listed on the website BidSpotter and bidding will start on January 17, 2023 and conclude on January 18. The items during the bidding process will include: a sizable statue of the Twitter bird, a projector, iMac displays, espresso machines, seats, and kitchenware, the report said. The auction offerings will also include loads of industrial kitchen equipment including refrigerators and pizza ovens. The beginning bids could be ranging from 25 to 50 dollars, it added.

Earlier, Elon Musk, in a controversial move, converted some of the Twitter headquarters' rooms into beds and instructed staff to begin working solely out of Twitter's San Francisco office.

Nick Dove, head of Heritage Global Partners, the organisation coordinating the bidding told CNN, "They've sold for 44 billion, and we're selling a couple of chairs and desks and computers."

“So if anyone genuinely thinks that the revenue from selling a couple computers and chairs will pay for the mountain there, then they're a moron,” Nick Dove said.
