Ebay gone Mad

Isn't it weird how when tragic things go wrong that is when the most money is spent? Take for instance the death of the Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin's shocking death. Out of all the movies he's made with all kinds of animals items with his name become so damn expensive. Like this figure I found here currenlty at $208.50. What the hell are you gonna do with it? Hang it up for what? He'll be forgotten and someone else will come along. Yes he was great and I loved watching his shows but holy shit $200 for a damn plastic figure. Does that mean I can get $90.00 for his VHS tape?
A signed poster going for $1,500??? http://cgi.ebay.com/CROCODILE-HUNTER-POSTER-SIGNED-BY-STEVE-IRWIN_W0QQitemZ330023715423QQihZ014QQcategoryZ14433QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem



An autographed baseball??? WTF? http://cgi.ebay.com/STEVE-IRWIN-SIGNED-AUTOGRAPH-BASEBALL-CROCODILE-HUNTER_W0QQitemZ230025446876QQihZ013QQcategoryZ14433QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
And yes one more thing. Make a note to run by Wal-mart or nearest department store and pick up a few "STEVE IRWIN CROCODILE HUNTER FIGURE" throw them on Ebay and make a couple of hundred extra bucks.
Check it out.

it's not ebay that's gone mad... It's the crocodile hunter fans who think the guy was their best friend or something. He messed with the bull and he got the horn. Since getting killed by a sting ray is as likely as getting killed by rabid squirrels so the irony is too much for me...
