Amusing Ebay auction

This auction started out several weeks ago at somewhere in the realm of $900.00, at which I burst out laughing and even made my husband come look. Each week, it goes by unpurchased, and the price has gotten lower and lower and lower until it's finally reached a reasonable market value. I have no idea where she is getting that these cost $2-3K. Yeah, maybe if it's made by Worth and in gorgeous condition!
