    I always wondered why there's any eBay auctions that high in the first place lol... surely it occurs to people that people who can afford to spend that kind of money aren't likely to buy thru an eBay auction? And that people who have items that are legitamtely worth that much, can find better places to sell them?

    I have my funds because I do not waste them. Therefore, I think I will pass this one.

    It was a joke guys. Seems either this guy wants to start high and his really hopeful, or has his head in the clouds, IMO.

    I think thebigandy has hit the nail on the head. Blurry pictures. Ok. This is obviously a joke.

    But you can put these kinds of auctions out on e-bay all day long. You have to pay the $2 or $4 or $6 listing fee and that's what you're throwing out.

    So in ONE out of TEN such auctions, you get a sucker that will pay $1000 - Done deal.

    Oh goodness gracious - my Mother always said - make sure you have clean underwear on when you go outside....

    Read the listing, it says that the shipping is free but Insurance is not available, hmm.
    Never seen anything so funny on ebay.
