Alas, they've sold out of them, so you may not be able to get one right away. I imagine the talk around the PU shop went something like this:

"What!?!?! Someone bought it??? We made that as a goof! Didn't I tell you to put some ridiculous price on it to clue people in that it was a joke?"

"Umm - I *did* ... Who would have thought there would be a market for a $700 pulley??"

"Think they'll go for $800?"

"Let's find out..."
HAHAHAHA...

Price changes...

The exchange rate crossed $2/british pound. If it keeps going like this, kiss Palo Uber anything off, as they prices will keep going up and up. Can we say $1000 pulley?

Sometimes it's not the company, it's the economy. I think it's the first time in 13 years that the pound has been this strong.........

That makes sense, but I don't think these are coming from London.
