                      Yea, Mr Goober is smiling ear to ear. He'd be able to send his kids to Harvard, if he has a box full of those caps.

                      The buyer doesn't have a clue that his obsession to win the bid, is going to put the hurt to many future internet auction shoppers.
                      In the long term, all of us will suffer the consequences of these mindless fools.

                      Hell, I could make a car payment with what the guy paid for a damn gas cap... geez !! p.s.(I don't have no stinkin' car payments !!)

                        I just happened to find one of those caps yesterday, glad I was able to identity it though that sale. It cleaned up rather nicely too. Any buyers out there? No bs, I really did find one.
