When I first saw it was only 6 mil.

Could China and India be in a bidding war?

Maybe Donald Trump. For a floating casino that could accomodate fly-in
high-rollers. G

Interesting, as I think this is the same one that was listed he

http://www.frenchcreekboatsales.com/...y_listings.asp

But I see that the link to this ship no longer works on their website. If I
recall correctly, it was listed there for MUCH less than the current bidding
price on eBay. Had I realized I could resell it at such an increase, I could
have used the difference to buy a REALLY nice airplane (and still afford to
operate it!)

I mentioned this to the proverbial geek website slashdot back in May, so it
has taken awhile to move.

It also should be noted that the current high bidder as I write this,
sebbol, has recently been purchasing shoes and a running watch, etc. very
low dollar items, so I'd be curious if they will actually cough up that kind
of dough. The seller says they'll accept paypal. I REALLY want to meet
someone who can pay $80 Million with a Credit Card! That's one heck of a
limit.

Already up to $55 million. Who knew there were that many Ebayers
with that much cash lying around.

That's probably going to be like the town in California they sold on
there last year. The high bidder never turned up, and subsequent
bidders backed out. It's now for sale through a real estate broker.

I'd be truly surprised if any one bidding actually is for real.
Course I have been surprised before.
