http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisiana_Purchase - $15 million in 1803 = $707.6 million now, roughly. Still, it's quite the steal

Hell yes, you should adjust your eBay picture for inflation. Less than $1 billion for 1/3 of the United States, holy sh*t my ancestors were desperate.

Except there was nothing there besides New Orleans. I could find better things to spend $707 million on than 800,000 square miles of grass and a city built on a sinkhole.

Someone did this on Fark a while ago (and they even did a better job. The buyer's name is SlavemastaTJeff). http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/1673/louisianapurchasemf4.jpg Still, I don't think you knew about that, so I'm giving you a five 'cause it's still a great concept.

April 6, 01? I'm guessin you want us to think that means 1801. But that date has absolutely no significance. Wikipedia "facts:" Napoleon started bein ruler on November 11, 1799. You may have meant April 6th, 1814, but that's when Napoleon was exiled (hardly the best time to set up an ebay account)

Add something about the user being Napoleon and how he can't have it anymore because he needs more money and he doesn't care about America.
