[DML] Re: USA DeLorean HIGH PRICE on eBay

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

What does value have to do with anything? If it is what someone 
wants then, how bad do they want it? - That one!

If someone is willing to pay $77,000 for a car, so be it. Maybe 
that's the mystery of it. Besides, refurbished isn't original. Maybe 
all the DeLoreans in similar condition are worth, correction, can 
fetch $77,000.

Harold McElraft - 3354 (Can be had for $85,000 - firm - not another 
one just like it on the planet)
