    I just saw this on ebay.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyota-Priu...580978705QQrdZ1

    I guess that means I can sell my package 9 for about 45,000. Oh well, to each his own. If someone is willing to pay that much then so be it :). Just thought it was funny.

    Supply vs. Demand.

    Basic economics.

    I totally agree, but this seller must not realize that other Prii that fall into a more "fully loaded" category are going for 25K :)

    Not to offend anyone, but IMO, that fake wood trim looks like crap!

    Oh, I agree about this Prius being, "fully loaded." I would hope that anyone buying one would shop around eBay first.

    This Prius only has 15 miles on it... So he was planning on doing this from the beginning.

    I think the fake wood interior looks like puke heh.

    Oh, the seller knows that all too well. Fred Haas Toyota is a dealer in the Houston area. Ads and markup like this make me glad I didn't choose that dealership when I bought mine. Sure, buyer beware... supply/demand... but this is a little over the top.

    No NAV system or JBL, etc. Yuck! Why would you pay $29K for that baby?

    And the leather doesn't look like it's perforated - Even here in Massachusetts, I opted for the perferated leather - at least it will help keep it a bit cooler.

    These are the dealers that are just out to rake money from you - I'd definately stay away!
