  Money never exchanged hands on the Stadium Events eBay auction. Supposedly it was sold to a local dealer for significantly less but it's yet to appear in any of his stores.

  But..
  
  
  
  << <i>After hearing of the success of this eBay seller, a man in Kansas dug up a factory-sealed copy of the game that he thought was worthless. However, his game became only the second known sealed copy in existence. He'd purchased the game in 1987, but could never find the Fitness mat to go with it. It was still sealed because he'd meant to return it. When his eBay auction ended on February 26, 2010, the game sold for an amazing $41,300. >>

  That's the guy I was referring to. Yes, the auction ended for that amount but it wasn't sold to the high bidder; non-payer. If you check the seller's feedback you'll see that none was left.
