but they'll probably get a little cheaper closer to Christmas!

I have a sleeping bag that would go great with that tent, and I will be willing to let it go for $8,500.00. I'll even throw in the stuff sack for it as well as a $1,500 plastic water bottle.
Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

I would be willing to bet most of that is liability insurance! :lol:

My trailer is built out of a tree. And it's 15" off the ground.
I'm thinking I should raise the price on mine. :thinking:
And I'll throw in a step stool.

It looks like a weather balloon that got caught in a tree.

Indeed, but then again, it's "art" and there are apparently those who would pay... although if I had that much dough, I wouldn't be hanging in a sack from the side of a tree...

:thinking:

The creator of these things (I looked at the link in the article) is a Dutch sculptor, inventor, artist and architect. who's conjured up some pretty wild stuff.

Maybe the $50,000 includes the tree.

I think there are 2 too many zeros on that price.
