I have always been intrigued by e-Bay and everything that gets sold on it. The above Roosevelt Island Lighthouse miniature was available only to members of the Harbour Lights Collectors Society and was retired in 4/2002. For this edition 20,000 copies were produced.
I have never been a big fan of chachkas / tshatshkes, inexpensive trinkets or souvenirs, but I have been playing on e-Bay long enough to know that such items can go for a fair penny when collectors are involved.
My question is would you buy such an item for yourself or give it as a gift?

It's almost a steal for $5 (and $10 in shipping costs) considering that it sold originally for $75.

i paid $25 for mine plus shipping. be warned, it is pretty poorly made, as it leans nearly a half-inch off vertical.
