I can believe that, these guys don't think anything but money so if ther're ready to dump that kind of money on something, you know there has to be a profit in it for them somewhere!..

This morning it was at $30 Mill but they took it off as they thought it was too high!

Question & Answer Answered On
Q:  Why was this item up to $30 million with intervening bids in the $20 millions and now its at $2.5 million? Something fishy seems to be going on. Is this...more Nov-02-07
A:  This is a real auction. Our reserve is 2,500,000. We felt the VERY high bids were not real so we deleated them w/ a responce to call if actually interested....more

I smell fish and it stinks. They're doing bids in $100 dollar increments not $1,000,000. And When I did Auctions, lots of them, if you backed out or were not qualified, you still owed the comission.  :stupid
