OMG, $305 as of this morning!
Dude, you're gonna be able to build a new PC at this rate.
nVidia announces the new GeForce 7900 and 7600 lines next week at CeBit. I'm hoping that pushes a few of the 7800's and 6800's down a bit
Insuring this shipment is gonna cost me!

TVguy, why not add the text of the letter to your auction? (If you haven't already done so?)
It's a great listing. I enjoyed just seeing all that stuff. Somebody sure had imagination to put it together.

'Twas I what penned that shiny text. Here it is:
This here auction is for Firefly/Serenity collectors only and consists of an 11 inch by 18 inch by 7 inch miniature “cargo” box, labeled appropriately for all folks in the ‘Verse in both English and Chinese. It has a “Lock-Down when in Anti-Gravity” sticker on one long side, and a “no passengers or human cargo” multilingual sticker on the other side. The top of the crate is labeled “To a Fellow Independent”.
The cargo box contains the following:
(all clothing unworn, all food unopened)
1 Action Snacks dehydrated fries labeled as Alliance property
1 Texas Best Beef Jerky with Firefly label overlay
6 postcards – 5 cast shot cards and one Serenity shot card
1 Firefly hip flask (shiny!)
1 very colorful Alliance planetary nebula map, tri-folding
1 Firefly fake leather folder containing:
A short letter from Mal Reynolds
A Serenity boarding pass, dated Friday, Sept 20
1 white Firefly t-shirt, size XL, logo in gold
1 “Joss Whedon’s Firefly” hat, black cloth, red embroidery, adjustable
1 set of three blueprints
Serenity – Engine Room
Serenity – Rear Corridor
Internal Specs
Things have a way of getting older, ‘specially things ferreted away, but sure as sin nothing’s creased or torn. ‘Tis a gorram fine box for the right shiny coin. A precious to be sure - and precious to me truth be told, but my ship needs parts and sometimes the right now has to ride above the back then.
I have held these for quite a spell, but I reckon someone else in the ‘Verse will put ‘em to proper display. Now, the Alliance is a might testy about some of this here contraband, so just between us, this is a simple business transaction for a hat and a tshirt. Anything else in the box, and by that I mean everything I listed above, will be a happy bonus sent to you with my thanks. (Um, yeah, Jane, that means they get everything in the box)

Oh yeah, I loved the text of the listing, too - very nicely done! - actually what I was referring to was the promo package itself.

well, I'm covered either way!
I wonder if this kind of thing gets noticed by people who finance movies and TV series?

That was ME!!!!
before some gorram Alliance spy upped my bid by $5 - this can;t fall into alliance hands, I am an independent living on the rim so this precious carge will be much safer with me than any other possble spy
Now if I can just find a way to stop other people bidding I may have a chance at getting this little beauty.
Sorry SasTV, (?) how much do you actually need for this newfangled computer wizardry. Mayhap I could slip a few shiny coin under the table and we can come to some mututally satisfying arrangement. Mim on the Rim

(More a fan of my own Andromeda fanfic than the actual show, but still.)
The Andromeda lithograph is now also on eBay. You can see it at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4845268844
