Buy Me on eBay ... Apparently

I actually rather enjoy finding eBay sellers who use my Starlog Project (aka the Starlog Internet Archive Project) as their descriptive text for issues of Starlog they're listing for sale. I'm pleased that the Starlog Project basically has become the go-to source for information on back issues of the late Starlog magazine.

The only annoying thing is that some of the sellers don't give credit to me or link to the Project. So I was pleased to stumble across this seller, who links prominently to my blog series. Thank you. (Then again, s/he accidentally listed the item for sale as being "Starlog Internet Archive Project: Starlog #9, October 1977: Logan's Run Spotli" which is being a little too literal and not literal enough. Thanks for the link; but people, of course, won't be buying the Starlog Internet Archive; they'll just be buying that issue of the magazine s/he has for sale.  But whatever.)

And buy it you should (said Yoda). Hey, $1.99 and free shipping? It's a deal.

Would You Pay $1 Million for Conan O'Brien's Suitcase?

The suitcase that outgoing Tonight Show host Conan O'Brien has put up for sale on eBay is currently (as of 5:55 pm Pacific Time, Saturday, January 16, 2010) at the bid price of $999,999.00.

Really.

There's still time to bid.

After all, that's still $29 million less than NBC is reportedly paying Conan to get rid of their late night baggage.
