I cant believe what people would pay for a smelly cloth that maybe 0.1% of the population may recognize what it is.... crazy

Man, people are sure bidding on those items like crazy! I mean, who wouldn't spend $5k on something that is probably worth $50!

I do have to LOL at the Emmy Darling saddlecloth when the eBay listing actually has the race chart at the bottom showing that Emmy Darling finished fifth in said race.

I was going to get it for you, but the $50 for shipping put me off. You'd think with a minimum bid of $4999, they might've thrown in the shipping.

Actually prices are way down on eBay. A buyers market. (compared to a couple of years ago)

3 years ago I sold Sarafan's 2nd place Arlington Million cloth for $1200. It sold this year for a little over $400.

For what it's worth, the insurance alone on the Sunday Silence cloth is $49.25 and his shipping includes insurance.

Look at the prices that small pieces of paper brought, and they're not even one of a kind.

I guess beauty and value are in the eye of the beholder. I could buy a ton of shares in Dee Tee horses for what I have tied up in my bundle of numbered rags.
