Don't worry, if you don't win that one he has another just like it.
*WHEW* That's good he has a spare, 'cos at that price, he won't hang onto 'em long!

I've always wondered how some of these sellers come up with prices like that. Maybe this guy has a giant spinning "price wheel" and it landed on 79.

I really don't know - if it hadn't come up in the "See More Items Like This FS" that eBay shoves on you, I'd have never heard of it either.

Seems like it's supposed to be a quicker version of eBay with less salad around. Pops up little windows when you try to do a search, narrowing the field for you. It does seem a little "express". Worth a shot.

Personally, I find this auction stupid rather than humorous. I think I'd rather buy Suri's bronzed turd.
