I wish I had $7500 to waste. I really want to know what is in there. I know it's going to be crap, but I just can't help myself. |

I figure it will probably be all over the news. Whoever buys it has got to be into it for their 15 minutes. |

I put it on my Ebay watch list. It looks like it has made some news stations. It's amazing what people put on there. Remember the house in Maplewood? Did anyone ever figure out wher eit was? |

Sounds like they will be placing it in a slot machine after they x-ray it. |

I'm sure Geraldo Rivera will try and do a TV special about the opening of the envelope.

It’s funny. Now they have the Mystery Envelope, but if they open it, it’s no longer a mystery. I wonder if the seller had to sign a confidentiality agreement.

They bought the Grilled Cheese sandwich with the image of the Virgin Mary on it too.

Brett-
No they didn't have to sign a confidentially agreement. The seller says even after it's won they aren't going to say what was in the envelope. BUT the winner can do whatever they want! I emailed the winner and told them I'm dying to know, so would they please tell me. |

Just stay tuned to Golden Palace, I'm sure they will have some kind of promotion with the envelope. |

I bet it's going to be a check made out to the purchaser for the same amount as the selling price. This will then be in the book of records for the biggest story about nothing. |

I don't think so. But it WOULD be funny if it was. |
