Matterhorn chunks o' rock

Post by Club33Hopeful » May Fri 06, 2005 10:52 am

Disneyland is auctioning off some chunks o' rock from the matterhorn. Seems kinda silly, but I will post the link for the interested:

Yeah. But it sure is funny how they can throw construction garbage in a box, add a certificate and call it "limited edition" and sell it for money.

This is Disney we're talking about. The funny part is how well it will sell! Geez, if only I could have done that with the historic stuff we unearthed last summer on road projects I'd be rich 8)

So, let's start an informal poll. How much do you think they will eventually sell for? Reply with your answer. I say $45.00.

Obviously this is a great business for Disney to be in. Hopefully this money goes back to where it came from, the parks.
Now if these Matterhorn rocks are to sell for $50 a piece they would end up taking in $2,000 just off of that. And look at some of the other stuff I found that still are open.
http://cgi.go.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... 6529670735 $7,600.00 for a sign from "It's a Small World" in Fl.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 6529612934 $6,550.00 for a car from Mr. Toad. I guess if you have it, why not spend it, but almost 8 grand for a small sign that and the pole it was on is a little excessive.

$69.00 now! That is $69.00 x 50 = $3450.00! I am going to be bold and say over $100 per rock.

Just for that rock, just what people can do for something like that. It is interesting though, if you really have it.
