Here is one of those items that just makes me scratch my head and wonder if some people really are this wet behind the ears. A friggen fish bowl with a Shell decal applied getting a $55 bid and $22 (!) shipping..? Item # 180909399118 . It's rare alright, rare you found someone dumb enough to bid on the thing..... I must admit if this thing came with a lid and a goldfish I would have snatched it up one of the other times it was listed.  Darin

Obviously a case of dumb and dumber. Who do you think is dumber? The person listing it or the person bidding on it.
