I saw that one browsing Barnstormers last night. Certainly caught my attention.

Sounds like a deal to me... if it comes with a small airport with a nice house on it!

Yes, but it will come from the Prince of Oompa Loompa Land in the form of a Royal Certified cheque in the amount of $7,010,000. This will require the potential seller to only have to send a $10,005 check to the buyer first!
