I just want to point out that Jake was just poking some good-natured fun at me,
atleast that is how I took it.  I am well known for my pictures of large
purchases.  In this case, unfortunately, the limits and my lack of funds have
prevented any such large purchases.

As for the person mentioned, I do not believe that he actually has as many as he
claims.  And at $200/each he is not in danger of selling to many of them, so
there is little chance that he will get caught inflating his inventory.

So out of curiousity, what's the incentive for inflating an inventory?  I tend
to avoid sellers who have unrealistic inventories, so they're losing business
from buyers like me.
