Check out the newsgroups in the US (the Project Vixen one for 
example).  The news of this sale is all over them - talk about 
excitement - and there are a number of testimonials on those sites 
as to the authenticity of the sale.  If this were a hoax, the DOA in 
the USA would have alerted Ebay by now, especially as the photos are 
taken from their feature.

are no new photos to speak of at this point. I hope this does turn 
out ot be the real deal and not some arse in america trying to pull 
a fast one.
