Sold! Bear Stearns T-shirt Sells For $151.76 On eBay

Reuters:

A used T-shirt bearing the Bear Stearns logo has sold for $151.76 online, worth about 14 or 15 shares in the once venerable Wall Street investment bank.

Bear Stearns shirts and other trinkets have been snatched up in recent days on eBay's Internet auction site.

This particular extra-large men's T-shirt, blue, with a white Bear Stearns logo, attracted over 1,600 visitors and sold for $151.76 on Monday night, a price no doubt prompted by the sudden fall of the fifth-largest U.S. investment bank.

Holy crap! Can you imagine what hoodies and parkas are going to cost? From now on, I'm saving all my company-logo clothing, for sure. Never know when going down can be so good....

Maybe a run on T-shirts will stimulate the economy.
I have a six pack of new Hannes tees and a black marker - I'm gonna get rich on E-bay!

I just so happen to own twenty of the friggin' things...and several vintage McDonnell-Douglas "Ts" as well. Any takers?

And everyone here thought the economy was bad....
