You were promoting it as something very valuable and encouraged people to bid ridiculous amounts on it. You certainly had a part in it.

Advertisement is part of the game, and maybe I did a really good job. Also I only pointed out the fact that it cannot be bought from any shop until the next Christmas, and as many people mistakenly sold it, it can really be considered rare. FYI, I only set the reserve price of 10.

Also I can see a potential exploit of bidding **** on a high value auction and make the seller lose his deposit.
