What has this world come to?

Not to mention, any proof that this is legit?

[albatross]

Maybe it's some hotshot genetics firm that is hoping to clone TW and they're after some DNA.

There are probably 5+ posters here that would buy that apple core for >$50,000

Why the hell would anyone throw away 30,000 bucks like that on what could be a fake apple core. Cmon the guy has 0 feedback and could have darn well eaten the apple himself. Geeeez.

[tonyy]

hahaha! "..as not to disrupt the DNA"

[Dub]

Just an addition to the list of stupid things that stupid people will buy.

this is pretty funny. I love the part where he describes how he used a disgarded beer cup to preserve the dna. priceless.

I know some one that sold one of Tiger Wood's golf balls for £7000 lol, imo its sad.

That dude is a genious. He probably ate that apple himself and had a good idea. I'm jealous. Not to mention it's insane someone would pay that much for an apple core.

New BMW or random apple core.... hmmmmm

It's not the fact that it might be fake. It's "who cares even if its real?"

It's a damn rotten apple core!!!! It's not like it's a ball or a glove. What the hell is the winner going to do with that?? Show it to his grandchildren. "Yep, that's the red delicious Tiger ate back in 2008." Give me a break.

There is a very real difference between someone bidding 30k on an apple core (and I do remember Tiger eating one - saw it on TV) and actually collecting 30 grand for an apple core. I am guessing there are multiple people wahooing that auction. Setting up proxy ebay accounts to drive up the price so this guy actually thinks he has something goin on.

I won't believe it until someone can confirm the $36,000 was paid in full

[teal]

QFT?

What does that mean?

Ahh ok. Didn't know that one.

Ahh ok. Didn't know that one.

Glad I could introduce you to useless internet lingo

Anyway, thread-jack over

I think that ebay should look at the buyer history of this guy. Last things he bought on ebay were iron maiden tickets, $.01 CD, and some stuff for a little girl. The guy selling has 0 feedback. Its some kids who did this as a joke I'm sure to see if the news would publish about the sale.
