That piece of garbage?? When the world's FINEST airplane ever built, the YB-70 Valkyrie, is put up of sale (the only one in the world), in working order, THEN I'll be in line.

will that mate well with my senns?

Unless I read it wrong, the bidding is now over $26,000,000.

And people complain that we spend too much on our audio gear.

Bah no cdp.

I hope you don't mean "fully loaded" with fuel; it would leak it out before you recieved it.

Sure, if you want to bomb things, the YB-70 would be the way to go. But this is a headphone forum, so we are mostly interested in listening to things, hence the SR-71.

That's a bargain. Less than a third of the over $90 million that their MiG is going for: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3078910291 .

A couple hours ago the F/A-18A maxed out Ebay's bidding system with 8-digits of 9s. I think the MiG was at that too. This has got to be a joke, I know the bids certainly are.

 

[strohmie]

It might just be legit - CNN has an article about it, saying that the FBI actually came to check on the auction.

 

[soundboy]

Hmmmm....with the MIG 29, the F/A-18, or the Porsche, I will be the coolest guy at my high school reunion next year.

Still waiting for a Harrier jump jet....I can make such an entrance with that baby.

 

[Music Fanatic]

It's been delisted off e-bay, and it looks likes the bids have been erased for the MiG too.

 

[jwramp]

yeah, "pre-approved buyers only" now....

If every member of headfi maxed out their paypal accounts, I still don't think we could have met the bid price.
