'I will have the torch available as soon as the run is completed and funds have cleared. '
What a cunt.

Why is he a cunt?
Everything else at the olympics is being sold to the highest bidder, I don't see why these these shouldn't be sold on as well.
It's no different to selling the rights to have the 'Official Biscuit of the 2012 Olympics' or any of the other bollocks going on.
Hooray for capitalism!

Is the thing here that there's more than one torch? Or is this exploiting ebay users because there is only one and this is a fake auction?

I assume there are 8000 of them?
One for each torch bearer. The point is more about the spirit of the Olympics. Meh, I'm sure if I had one I'd probably want to make some cash, but then I'm not "an inspirational person having my moment to shine" like they supposedly are.

Dicks.
I went and saw a handover of the torch today, in a village of maybe 150 people there were easily 1000+ of us lined up watching it. It's only really when the bearer bloke jogged away and the dozens of police trudged off to the next handover we looked at eachother and went "what the hell are we doing here?"
Was a good crack though

Are you a Cornwallian too?
I'm sure there's enough of us here to start a revolution, if we could only be arsed...
Seriously though, how did they pick the towns that the torch passes through? They could have picked picturesque sunny (ish) St Ives, but no, they chose Penzance. Straight on at the kebab shop, past Clinton's Cards and Poundland, hang a right at Burton's and past the youth information centre. Great Britain in a nutshell.

They sent out a request for 'invites'
about 3 years ago, and they are only visiting places that asked them to come. I guess St.Ives thought better of it!

Yes I'm sure you would say no to 100K+. Guardian of the Olympic spirit.
I find it bizarre anyone would want a torch. Weirdo's.
