 I agree.  I don't think he really expects to get $1.8M, but if he gets enough uneducated do-dos with more money than brains to even start thinking about astronomical numbers close to his price, he's accomplished his task.  This listing is just free advertising to the world courtesy of epay.  He'll get lots of offers, and after the auction is over he'll start contacting each one and negotiating with them individually until he finds one who is stupid enough to accept his hype as gospel and still pay considerably over market for his susposedly "one of one".  He's a hustler.  As Barnum and Bailey said....

guess he just wanted to be higher up the listings than the 67 corvette owner, most e-bayers search highest price first-so he'd be on top of the 1.8 mil
