Whoa! 
If the "Buy it now" price is $2,300, I wonder what the reserve price is - at least $1,500 wouldn't you think? It will be interesting to see where this ends up! |

Maybe we should all bid until we reach $20. Who knows what the reserve price for it is.

If the Buy it Now price is $2300, and it has a reserve, you can bet that the reserve is between $1500-2000.
And the shipping isn't disclosed either. I bet it doesn't sell.

Faerygirl is correct, it will not sell. I know what the reserve price is, because I was going to buy it a few months ago. Circumstances held me back, and I guess having a couple thousand dollars worth of Pleuros is MUCH better! 
The shipping will be impossible unless you personally pick it up or if Mark agrees to meet you somewhere closer.
Good luck, and sorry in advance to the winner!

Pat, if you have a couple thousand to drop on orchids I definitely have a gorgeous friend I could introduce you to (LOL just kidding).
You never know, there could be a really wealthy person out there who would go the distance for that orchid, but, for most common folk its a pipedream. I have always wanted one of those, but they are so expensive even for a small one (when you can find them).

It says it has a strong perfume. I didn't realize it would be a pepe-Lepeu kinda perfume. Hehe. Still, I can see a serious collector with a few extra grand willing to take it.
