It’s not like this wasn’t expected!  I think the “selling” is bit misleading as that’s the listing price.   I also find it funny that as soon as ABC hits the wires with this story, there are a flood of $1,000,000+ listings that pop up!

Legitimate sales for individual TMX Elmos seem to be topping out around $120 or so.  I’m sure that will go up as C Day approaches.
