$100M and it's not even the real "Sputnik" that went into orbit.

I'll build them a better one in my garage for half that.

20 minutes ago it was at $99,999,999.00 and 92 bids.
Now it's at $66,000,100.00 and 23 bids. Maybe they had a bunch of phony bids, and it took a certain amount of time to identify and nullify the invalid bids. But still, $66M? Those are the real, verified bids? $66M? How do you aquire $66M of excess cash if you are that dumb that you can think of no better way to spend it than on this junk?

Too bad they retracted it. I was trying to collect the whole set! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif Oh well, they probably didn't accept PayPal anyhow.

DeiselDave, do they still have any left at Walmartov? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
