Crazy man, crazy...

Totally, especially since it doesn't even come with the giant action figures.

Plus, everyone knows an auction for Daisy's shorts would blow that car out of the water.

Quoted from Steph



Actually, I did read the text auction,
and yes I know this car is more "special" than the disposable ones
(race-built, autographed, etc... ),
but my point is that there is nothing "unique" about this one
other than the person who owned it, and the signatures.

Anyone can build a car like that for $30-40K and you'd never know the difference.

Sure, there is a certain collector "cachet" about this particular car,
but c'mon, 2,7 M !!!!!!!  ?????  100K would have be too much already....

Must be nice to have that kind of cash to waste....
(... BTW ,  I have a nice Robotron for sale for $75,000 !   )




Steph



I have the authentic Robotron from Eugene Jarvis personnal collection with his signature !!
Not for sale ha ha ha !!!

If it is legit,  I would guess that that is probably amongst the top 5 highest priced auctions ever on eBay.

Crazy man, crazy...


Steph




As expected, it was a deadbeat bidder ...
(...otherwise it WOULD have been the highest-priced aution in eBay history... )

"Sources" say that Schneider is very upset and disappointed .


nah,  really.... ?!?!?!    Was he really expecting to get $10M for his car ?

(... cripes,  the doors don't even work !  

... so much for me getting $75,000 for my Robotron now...


Steph
