Hey, if someone wants to buy it for anywhere close to what they are asking, it apparently is worth it to them. They are not going to flip it and make any money. There are people out there with a lot of disposable money (not me). The only problem I see is it sets a "sales price" that is unrealistic and jacks subsequent sales offers up. Frank was probably close to a good price with all the glassware. Ron, you really need to get some expanded TV experience, it is a fun show to watch. No doubt totally staged but fun to watch.
Best, Jerry

PS: A nice "sad face" recently sold for close to $500. I would have loved to have it but not for that much. Someone wanted and willing to pay the price. Let's face it all of us are looking for something on the cheap.
