By simply talking about it, it WILL have an impact on the price of these items. I agree, it is somewhat morbid... But must admit I don't know why everyone is so upset by prices (seeming) to increase this week. Are these people really "capitalizing" on the death of the man? Or just selling something they own? Ebay is a poor example to say someone is taking advantage of the situation because the price is set by the buyer. If these cars do go up in value, it is just another compliment to the legacy of Mr. DeLorean. Selling photos of the WTC in flames on 9/11 is capitalizing on something bad.. I don't think I could say the same thing for selling a car to the highest bidder. --- Louie <louie@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > Perhaps I'm just being overly sensative, but this > just reeks of bad > taste.
