Ebay idiot item #1574062520 here
Check it out. People have actually bid money on this. As of right now, it's up to $21! The only thing rare about this one is that the seller actually didn't use the word rare, and that this particular reel doesn't appear to be broken.

Wait a minute ... I have 18 **RARE** 70mm film cores which held the **RARE** IMAX prints of Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. I might be able to retire!
I also have 18 70mm film cans labeled "STAR WARS" and "Kodak Vision Color Print Film" that the print was originally shipped in! And then there's all of the heads and tails from the original print! Yes, I think I will retire ... in the Bahamas, where I can visit Manny every day!

This was even funnier when Aaron Sisemore posted it a few hours before Brad in the thread "Ebay IDIOT ALERT!"

DOH! I guess that's what I get for not checking the threads first. I'll go ahead and close my own thread now and further comments can be made on the original thread.
