eBay Journal - Gil Grissom's Office

Haha, first entry in September. XD

My regular visit to csifiles.com yielded an interesting news regarding a CSI (Crime Scene Investigaton) season 7 icon - one of the miniatures made by the 'miniature killer', : Gil Grissom's office. The actual prop used in CBS's CSI is now being auctioned off on eBay for the benefit of abused and neglected children in foster care through CASA, a non-profit organization and CBS itself.

As of today, the current bid on the miniature (estimated to be worth $25,000) is $15,000 by an anonymous bidder. eBay protects its users by masking the usernames involving high priced or high profile items that are up for bid. And, the auction is also pre-approved, i.e., all interested bidders have to sign up first and get screened by the sponsors before they are allowed to actually bid. Just how scandalous it would be if the bidding was won by some under-aged geek on some corner of the planet, for $25,000 with only twelve dollars to his name..XD Interesting to note that the miniature started bidding at a little less than $10. With seven days to go, God only knows how big it's gonna be.
