You get a wide range of auction bids on eBay. I've seen coins sold for 300 or more and fractions sold for multiple times their exchange rate.
What seems to be the trend is 1 week contracts with 1 Erupter that closes at an average less than $10 but an instance of one of these has closed at $150.
What could that mean for the actual value of Bitcoin? Is it actually approximately $7500 a Bitcoin?
Or how about my recent experience seeing my auction for a contract of a brick with 10 erupters for 6 months close at a meer $150.
Would that mean that each Bitcoin is only actually worth $30 each?
But alas, the Bitcoin difficulty will only continue to exponentially raise, does that mean so will the exchange rates?

um... uh...
sadly, i paid $150 on eBay for a one week mining contract.
Obviously it wasn't one of my finer monents. The problem was that i caught up bidding on multiple erupter auctions and didn't catch that it was a 1 week contract and not an actual erupter.
I contacted the seller and asked that my bid be removed. We couldn't reach an agreement so the sale went through. My loss for being stupid. On the plus side, the seller felt sorry for me and turned it into a one month contract without me asking. Good guy, he didn't have to do that. You can be sure that i look close for that word "contract" now.
