- yankpats, on 10/10/2007, -9/+289I'd somehow declare war on the United States. It would be epic.
- rpgguy1o1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+204the shipping is where they get ya man
- Havs, on 10/10/2007, -6/+208Ganz wichting der Verkaufspreis der Insel beträgt EUR 25.000.000,00 und nicht EUR 250.000,00 der Richtige Betrag läst sich leider in der ebay Maske nicht eingeben.
Translation: Some dumbass put 250,000 euro when he meant to put 25 million euro. - 10goto10, on 10/10/2007, -4/+192I'm waiting to see if the Pirate Bay guys will bid on this.
- r2700, on 10/10/2007, -1/+169Anyone want to split it with me? We could clone dinosaurs. I bet we'd get a lot of tourists.
- vanityfarewell, on 10/10/2007, -5/+170Get the ***** off my island.
- vroom101, on 10/10/2007, -15/+132I was expecting a price tag in the millions of dollars, but surprisingly it's well below US $500,000.00 dollars. It's certainly in a very pretty location.
- Tobark, on 10/10/2007, -0/+114They didnt mention anything about the black smokey thing that floats around and randomly kicks your ass or the buttons you have to push every 108 minutes. No sale.
- extrasalty, on 10/10/2007, -0/+98Read further- "Recently two accredited valuation companies concurred that the current value is estimated at $25 million Euros."
- qwerty1024, on 10/10/2007, -1/+96Im buying this and then im burning all my clothes
- spearce, on 10/10/2007, -0/+92if something looks like its to good to be true it usually is. somebody somewhere is off loading this island. i'd imagine that they ran into some kind of problem that will be extremely costly to work around. or maybe a divorce.
- lhnz, on 10/10/2007, -1/+89lol, You gave money to pirates?!
- slasherx, on 10/10/2007, -6/+82I'm scared to digg your comment. With all the bush spying and wiretaps, digging this comment would probably put me on some kind of list.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+57That's right, TWENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLAR-EUROS! [cue pinky finger to mouth]
- thirdman, on 10/10/2007, -1/+56Only if you discovered the secret to not dying of old age...
- efloetry83, on 10/10/2007, -6/+60Thats some Jurassic park stuff right there you will be living there for a couple weeks and dinosaurs will pop out of nowhere.
- melllvar37, on 10/10/2007, -0/+53it actually says ebay's website doesn't allow you to use 25.000.000€ as starting price...
- slasherx, on 10/10/2007, -2/+54They better. I gave them a $20 donation and have yet to see anything come out of it. :(
- MeMongo, on 10/10/2007, -3/+54You're already on the list for even THINKING of digging the comment. Stay where you are, the authorities will be stopping by shortly
- Oniony, on 10/10/2007, -4/+54More like 'short'.
- ganjadude4391, on 10/10/2007, -5/+54i could grow my weed legally and being that its my island, no government could do anythign about it
buy island

????
profit!!! - DeathfireD, on 10/10/2007, -5/+52wheres pirate bay? They should be buying this island and turning it into pirate island "the freest place on earth".
- Tenlow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+46At the bottom of the page in german it says the price is 25m euro because ebay sucks (more or less)
- xpankrat, on 10/10/2007, -1/+46or maybe a rising sea level :)
- diggdong, on 10/10/2007, -1/+44See ya on Google Earth
- qwerty1024, on 10/10/2007, -2/+39My penis is too small to be seen from outer-space. No matter how good the technology gets
- philippbock, on 10/10/2007, -3/+38Yeah, now all you need to do is get a first life!
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -10/+43It's a low price because in 15 years it will be under water.
- Scynet, on 10/10/2007, -1/+34I don't recall any recent US wars against anyone being all that *short* :P
- MeMongo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+33It would be nice to have an island like that in case the world is taken over by zombies. They wouldn't be able to find you there
- MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -0/+31It looks like spearce was right. That price was too good to be true.
- dezmo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+30all it takes is one zombie seagull
- knowyourrights, on 10/10/2007, -2/+32That's some FarCry ***** right there...
- diggless, on 10/10/2007, -1/+29can you get insurance against rising sea levels?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+31Yeah, I was surprised with the price tag too.. the idea of buying an island from ebay was rather interesting as well.
- moofer, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27I just dugg all of you. Bring it.
- celkin, on 10/10/2007, -1/+26The island is one mile long by 1780 feet wide. The US is at least...three times that size.
- Murphious, on 10/10/2007, -2/+27Wouldn't they need.. you know.. an internet connection?
- theholycow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+247. ???
8. PROFIT! - EBFoxbat, on 10/10/2007, -1/+24That said, it's the most compelling ebay auction I've ever seen.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25who needs a real tropical island when I have no life and no one to share it with because I play crysis during the day and have horse sex on second life at night.
- tankexmortis, on 10/10/2007, -0/+23Not necessarily, they don't need to breathe, so they could walk on the sea bottom, or float.
And don't even get me started on vampires, I mean jeez. - scottybowl, on 10/10/2007, -3/+25they missed off two 0's by accident
- Pugmonkeys, on 10/10/2007, -3/+25Ummm I guess I'm a real loony then. Imagine the kicking partys you could have there. And there is no way I'd ever be alone on it, I can't imagine any of my friends turning down an invitation to come to a beautiful island paradise where we can do whatever the hell we want. Yeah I must be insane I guess...
- Anteros, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20They would still have to comply with the laws of fiji
- philippbock, on 10/10/2007, -4/+23Yeah, I suppose the US wouldn’t stand a chance …
- nublet, on 10/10/2007, -2/+21it's beautiful ;o
- stupergenius, on 10/10/2007, -3/+21I hereby declare this sovereign nation Petoria and make my first act as supreme ruler to declare war against the United States.
- Anteros, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18The local govenment regulates it, owning a island is not much different from owning a plot of land. All known islands on earth have been claimed and regulated by a country. If you just set up home in an uninhabited island in fiji (for example) you could expect a visit from the police as soon as the owners discovered this.
Obviously some governments are more corrupt and less stable than others so buying an island that is regulated by one of these countries is not recommended. Also some countries do not allow foreign ownership (like the Philippines) -
