BentleySharp 0 Posted December 15, 2014 This thread was too fun. Too fun I just wish we could see something like a time-lapse video of the seller's face from when the bid started at $25, gradually rose to over $100,000, reached $150,600, and then was threatened with litigation if it turned out to be fake, and finally the shameful removing of the auction.
