More eBay madness involving an affluent Aussie, a Canadian with dope smoking son and Guitar Hero III for the Wii.

Okay, so it is tough to find a Wii at Christmas, and pretty tough to find Guitar Hero III for the rig once you have one, but this is just silly.

In Canada, after racing around everywhere for the game for his 15 year old son, Dad was in for a surprise; "I had finally got the Holy Grail of Xmas presents pretty much just in the nick of time. I couldn't wait to spread the jubilance to my son,"

"Then, yesterday, I came home from work early and what do I find? My innocent little boy smoking pot in the backyard with two of his delinquent friends."

So, to punish the boy, Dad decided to put the new game up on eBay.

After the five day auction, the last of around 100 bids was from an Australian at AU$10,420.00

Surely the game is not that hard to find, even in Aus.  For 10 large, you could get a PS3, Xbox 360, PS2 plus all versions of Guitar Hero to date, along with Rock Band, a real guitar, amp and a bunch of friends to enjoy the show.
