    Well Rachie, you did say it was a sure way to lose some money and the bidder did indeed!

    What a big scam!

    But the final figure doesn't fit in with the clues.... The seller said the amount started with a "1" and ended in ".68".... well $65.00 fits neither criteria, how bizaree!! crazy!
