Its nice to know that it comes from a smoke free home! (see description).

Considering that it's probably from a coal-fired locomotive or stationary boiler, it probably was in a smoke-filled home at some point. The description also encourages people to ask questions. I'm tempted to ask about price, but "are you freakin' kidding me?" is as polite a question as I can come up with, and that still seems a bit rude. The starting bid is more than I paid for my first house or all ten cars I've purchased in my life combined. I assumed it was a typo since it's almost 100 times as much as the seller's next highest item, but it's been up for a few days now and hasn't been changed.
