There is probably an auction fee tacked on (percentage of selling price) for
the auction house.

Whoever bought the thing from Mr. Hatfield earlier this year really should
be ashamed of himself. I for one hope someone out there could at least
send Mr. Hatfield one of the Apple I replicas.
Here's a list to the actual auction that ended yesterday.

I am not sure where this $671,400 figure came from the press throws
around. It sold for 420,000 euros which google is telling me is $542,220
usd. Still way too much but, less then they got last time.
