Posted By: <b>Lee Behrens</b><p>How do you get the "Approved Bidding" listing? That's what I thought was private auctions in the first place.

Posted By: <b>Dan Mathewson</b><p>...is another eBay "program" that they instituted because of bidders that are joking around or fraudulent in their bidding activity...the ones that come in and bid a billion dollars on Jimi Hendrix' boyhood house, or ten million dollars on the John Lennon fingernail clipping collection, that sorta crap.<BR><BR>Private auctions are usually for the sellers that want to make a ton of money on something and have something to hide. eBay's private auctions enable them to make their ton of money and, thus, eBay gets their sweet little percentage.

Posted By: <b>kyle</b><p>This auction has been viewed over 30K times because at every comercial break on comedy central they are push, push, pushing this cartoon cell on to the public. Starts to get annoying after awhile

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>another key to the silly price is that it is a charity auction, which means it's a big, fat tax write off for the winner. Remove the ability to take the tax deduction and watch the price plummet. Kind of like the Seeing the Phillies spring training jerseys auctioned at Willow Grove in 1982 for charity. Schmidt, Rose and Carlton all went for $5k plus if I remember correctly.
