How do you 'own' a town exactly? Shipping's gotta be a motherfucker. :D
83 acres of land in California for less than 2 mill? What's the catch?
83 achres for 1.7 million dollars? That's a pretty fucking sweet deal. If I had 1.7 million dollars to my name I'd think about bidding.
I'd imagine some sort of crown and septer combination would be involved.Quote:

You pay triple that for 8.3 acres in California. Hell, more than triple.
Yeah, but the town has the plague.
Indian Burial Ground imo.
YES! Whomever buys the town needs to do this.Seriously. I would.Quote:
Name the town after yourself. Elect yourself Mayor. Hold your own parade down Main Street.
Ive always dreamed of being a millionare and owning a mobile home park. Truly the stuff of dreams.Quote:
Your Bridgeville oppurtunities are endless! Create a : RV Park, Mobile Home Park....
I hope this gets bought by a major corporation and exploited for product placement purposes. Like they name it Cingular Wireless, CA or something. I remember Dish Network did this with a town in Texas and it was awesome. I think everyone in town got free Dish Network TV, too.
It actually wouldn't surprise me if Golden Palace bought the town, considering they buy every other huge novelty item on eBay for marketing purposes.Quote:

As much fun as owning a town would be, though, I'm more interested in those crazy underground complexes that show up occasionally on ebay. Either the old missile silos, or like that one that was almost a full underground city.
Holding out for Volcano Base -- No Reserve!
After buying it, would you have enough money left over for the giant fog machines?Quote:

Holy crap, Glitch said something funny.
Screw fog machines... I'll pull a Centralia, and set the whole underground part of the city on fire.Quote:

Anyone else notice the new bridge over the river? This town was most likely flooded out not too long ago.
I guess there's not really a carfax-style report you can bring up before buying a town. Like, a townfax or something.

Q. What is the environmental condition of the property?
A. A Phase1 environmental report was done By Phase 1 Inc. a licensed consultant. Their conclusion was: "Phase One Inc. has identified no major, no medium, and one minor environmental concern currently associated with the subject site". The minor concern was an unlabeled drum and two buckets which have subsequently been removed.
Egads! We must answer the riddle of the UNLABELED DRUM AND TWO BUCKETS!
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Look at the rolling pasture hills also, they look ripe for landslides.Quote:
