You get the point, it's not just your price which we know is north of $1M, it's everyone else that owns shopbot.xxx that's going to want big bucks when ebay comes knocking.

And all you need is one hold out to **** the deal for everyone.

If ebay can't get them all, they won't take any.

Very valid point.
