    $8000 beats $60,000? Did you study economics with the Green Party?

    In all fairness ... if their partner has instructed "Sell it" ... and it is then listed as For sale on Trademe. (at a fair and reasonable price of course )

    What else can a guy do without losing lots of money ... eh .. ???

    The comment I always like is "No others like it" ... and usually quite true. But not in a nice way ... and I personally hope there isn't.

    Spotted this one today - god knows what his reserve is, but he's in for a lot of relisting at that starting price.
