Golden Palace also sponsors auctions like these for publicity.

Yeah, what exactly are they doing with all this stuff? Gathering attractions for one lame ass theme resturant? the eBay Casino/Dinner Theater?

Wouldn't it be great if there's just a piece of paper with the word "SUCKER!!!!" printed on it inside?

Why would anyone want to pid $7,600 on an envelope with the contents unknown? That's crazy.

Free publicity - all these crazy auctions gather alot of attention from local news, radio, etc.
When theres follow-ups on who won these stupid items with an outrageous bid - golden palace gets mentioned and blammo - free advertising.

Why did a topic get made about this? Why are we all talking about Golden Palace now?

:lol I just searched for the term "mystery item" on ebay and got 85 results. The highest legit one currently at US $187.50.

The guy says he will be making ANOTHER sale like the mistery item one soon! This time selling an exclusive item or something, but he still won't disclose what'd be in it! And to think that those guys at Golden Palace haven't mentioned what it is yet, this means other people will be all over the new wonder....
