    The auction site here

    Four days left to bid and the location is Ellicott City, Maryland

    Ought to be worth someone's $22!

    Now $375 and next bid step is $400.

    Who will take a trip to Maryland to collect?

    It is at $2100. You can almost get a new one for that.

    Not the successful bidder, but a staff member of the auction house involved is a member of this board!

    There is a sort of promise that other Bing related items might appear.
