香港大公报讯援引外电消息称,一件“景色优美、野生动物可人,但财政状况需要修理──买主要亲身领取”的拍卖品,十日被放上eBay网站拍卖,那就是:冰岛。
九十九便士(十三点一港元)的底价在清晨时分已狂升至一千万英镑(约一亿三千二百万港元)。虽然国际乐坛巨星比约克并不包括在拍卖品中,不过“冰岛”仍吸引了二十六名匿名人士叫价八十四次。
竞投者发出的问题包括“你有没有火山爆发∕地震保险提供?”、“我付的钱会不会被冻结?”和“你接不接受买家在货到时才付款?”等。
No offence to our readers from Iceland, and neither are we trying tomake fun of their recent economic problems, but we could not stoplaughing when we saw a lunatic put up Iceland for sale on eBay.
The sale started at 99 pence and was heavily bid on receiving 84 bidsfrom 26 people, the last bid was a whipping 10 million pounds. The bidread:
"Located in the mid-Atlantic ridge in the North Atlantic Ocean, Icelandwill provide the winning bidder with — a habitable environment,Icelandic Horses and admittedly a somewhat sketchy financial situation,"
There were several funny question being asked by bidders which included"Do you offer volcano/earthquake insurance?", "Is it possible that mypayment will be frozen?", and "Will you accept C.O.D. as a form ofpayment?"
The bid has been taken off by eBay as of now, but this definitely showshow a unregulated market can have lunatics selling things that do notbelong to them. What next, do we see this blog on sale at eBay.
