You just KNOW that no one's gonna buy this. If they did, Ebay would be extremely happy at getting 1.5% of the 7 mil.

The best part of the auction:

The vessel has many uses because of its size, accommodation, and onboard equipment. Some suggested uses have been, British Naval Museum, Offshore Casino, Resort, Amusement Park, Floating Marina, Training Ship, Conference Center, or Private Yacht.

Don't know about this one, but a while back (in the Summer) the Alaskan government was selling a Ferry taht would hold like 150 cars, and THAT was legit.

We should all ban together to buy this thing and rename her the U.S.S. Digitpress Then we could defend video games everywhere :P

Sound good to me. I've got about $40 in my Paypal account I'll throw in, can anyone else cover the remaining $6,999,960.00?

Sound good to me. I've got about $40 in my Paypal account, so if anyone else can come up with the other $6,999,960.00, then we're sorted.

All I'v got in my wallet is a bottle cap and a stick of gum.



... and I just ate the stick of gum.

USS Digitalpress can be used for the first annual fishing derby.

[SoulBlazer]

Ah! They are STILL trying to get rid of this ship!

Yes, this is REAL, guys. I heard about this over a year ago on another message board I vist. The ship is actually for SALE by the Brazilian government.

I'm just really surprised that NO company or foundation or rich person has bought the ship yet. You really CAN do a lot of things with a ship this size. Anyone been to the USS Yorktown? That idea. Or some have been turned into hotels or casinos.

[Lone_Monster]

I'll chip in a buck. Only $6,999,959.00 more. Who else will give in some more?
(Yes, am a cheap bastard)

[xertcev]

Here's the kicker:

One should consider that the value of the navigational equipment, generators, and onboard equipment far exceeds the opening bid

You could easily part it out and resell on eBay for a profit.

[captain nintendo]

Would that make Joe the "skipper" Who would be Gilligan?
And could we hook up a R.O.B. and make it the auto pilot
I want to be Captain of our onboard air force since I am Captain Nintendo
