Wow!! This one slipped under my radar. Thanks for the "sharp eyes", Steve. I don't understand why this one is going so high, especially since there have been so many recent ones sell for much less (even my two!). :-) I do recognize a few of the bidders as people that have frequently bid on Phantoms in the past. Perhaps they are finally trying to get one at any cost.
