What else are you going to do with $100,000?

So if you had $100,000, would you be willing to blow it on the broken and rusted remains of a prop from a TV show that was cancelled 40 years ago? If you said yes, you're my kind of people. Check this out. Oh yes, the Shuttlecraft Galileo is up for auction, but the emptor should seriously caveat, like for real.
Holy crap! Only 100 grand? You'd be an idiot not to buy it!

Don't worry, the endoplasm
will wash right off.
'The what is up for what?' you might be asking. Well, an auction is 'a sale of property to the highest bidder' but you should probably already know that. The Shuttlecraft Galileo, or at least the beat-to-hell remains of the Galileo, is a prop from the original Star Trek. You see whenever the story required characters to be isolated from the Enterprise or trapped on a planet or whatever, the transporter would conveniently break down leaving the shuttle craft to crash, run out of power or get absorbed by a giant space amoeba. It's called drama.

Well, after four decades of exposure to the elements and almost certainly being used by hobos as a toilet, the Galileo can be yours! Better hurry though, there's only 9 days left and the bid is already up to $20,000 and could go as high as $100,000. Yeah, one hundred thousand goddamn dollars.
More like Shuttle-Crap Galileo. Oh yeah, better put some aloe on that burn.
