Passing the buck
Tue Jan 16 2007, 10:13
A BLOKE who flogged his $1700 PS3 system with two games and a controller on eBay for $1 so that someone could have a good Christmas is using the buck he made to raise money for his favourite charity.

On Ouchs, a 23-year-old from Canada, flogged his PS3 to Crystal Wherely for a $1, basically, he says, to make her life a bit brighter. Now Ouchs has received the dollar bill and is flogging it, along with a news article of the dollar's history on ebay here.

This time, proceeds from the sale are going to the Cambodia Support Group. This group helped sponsor Ouchs and his family escape from Cambodia in 1989.

At time of writing his dollar was worth $117 and there are still nine hours to go. µ

Do you think the move was justified?
