Hahaha that's funny. They need a section for military. That way people can sell their nukes and WMD and stuff. Ebay would be a good place to get some too! I find they're too expensive in stores, so I'd definatly buy mine at ebay from now on.

Yep, ebay can start a new ad campaign now..."sell your aircraft carriers, nukes and WMD here!"

Wonder what the listing fee was and how much of the selling price will they get.

Haha yeah. I'm sure shipping will be expensive too.

"oh, just send it by UPS standard"

Woah! I feel like bidding just to say I did, but what if no one else does? I'll look pretty silly. I won't bid.

Kinda makes you wonder about all the interest.

Can't you picture it, sitting around at a party, talking about the bid you have on an aircraft carrier!

haha yeah. or just the fact of owning it. Thing is though, you have to be prepared to move. You can't just put that thing on a trailer and bring it to the cottage.

There is places on the web were you can buy old tanks and things like that.

Well, something must be up, the auction is no longer listed!

Yep, noticed that too! Usually it's still up for a bit when it's over.... maybe it was indeed bogus.

What a drag, you win a bid for a giant ship and it's not even real.

The bidding still had 2 days to go. I'm thinking the government may have gotten involved.

Haha, could be. I wonder if there's any hefty fines for something like this, probably. It could actually be some guy who landed on one of those, took it over, and was selling it. Ok, maybe I've been playing too many space ship type games.
