Yeah, they should be going for at least 10 pounds...

How long will this last?

I just bid 10 pound, but I got auto-swiped. Sorry, IMHO they ain't worth more than 10 pound :)

HA. Trying to sell a company on ebay is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. What kind of moron would come up with something like that? Actually, I just wanted to try to post a comment on the same day that the link is posted. Thank you.

i don't know if i trust buying a new-media company from someone with zero feedback and sunglasses - ESPECIALLY since they seem to be selling the same company three times!

anyway, razorfish is in new york, isn't it?

Wow, cheesebot you seem to be a great customer! I'm sure that the staff of your new company will be very happy to be working for a robot made out of decaying dairy produce.

TimmyBigHands.com is also for sale, looks like a much better buy to me.

Y'know, I just might want to see the bona fides on this one before bidding.

I also want to know just how many web developers I get for my dollar and a half. Round numbers OK. Is shipping extra?

Heh heh ... a surprising number of you posted comments thinking this auction was real, rather than just a satirical statement (probably from a current Razorfish employee.) Ebay is the best place on the Web to launch new memes ... almost becoming a satire format in and of itself.
