man pays 17K for George Washington's hair 4 strands  |
| |
|  and the thing is it is unsure if it was his hair tobegin with.
the hair sold at an auction to a man from VA who refused to give his name.....
http://www.foxnews.com/st...
The hair was given to her by her father which was preserved in a locket with a watch in it.
Ok, it may be, it may not be,
But would you risk 17K for 4 strands of hair, to risk that they are from George Washington, and I wonder if there is a way to find out if it is or isn't.
>Allen told potential buyers that the hair had been handed down since it was clipped from Washington's head. The Historical Society of Montgomery County, Pa., inspected Allen's evidence and gave her its backing.<
Even with teh backing of the historical society I think its risky to say I would spend that much for something I couldn't be sure of...
How about you?

| |  There is no way, even if I had that kind of money to throw around I would not buy hair like that even if they could prove to me it was his.

| |  All I can say is ... well I am speechless. I am thinking a fool and their money soon part... but I won't say it... hehe. It's HAIR!!! What are they going to do.. dig up old George to validate the hair is of his DNA? That's a little too risky for me too.

| |  I read that story and do believe it is one of the most ridiculous buys I have ever read about. They can't even do a DNA test, so who would want to risk thousands of dollars for that? Who would just happen to preserve those hairs for hundreds of year? I don't get that much money in two years time for existing on this earth! I guess if the person has 'money to burn' it would seem a safe investment. To me it seems shameful and foolish.

| |  Let's see...17K for 4 strands of hair...I don't care who's hair it is, if I had that much money I wouldn't be spending it on hair...Apparently this person has money to throw away..If it is really George's hair, then great...If not, oh well...

Honestly though what would you with four strands of hair and why would you want them? $17,000 is alot of money all the things you could buy i bet none of you guys thought of a couple strands of hair! how can he tell it is really his hair, lol That gives me and idea... i have some britney hair for sale on ebay!

| |  That's a waste of money they should have donated it to charity. Yes with the advanced technology we can get a dna testing on the hair to determine who it belongs to. I would never risk any money that big just for a strand of hair. What will I do with just a strand? I think that is not a sane way to spend your money.

| |  What that is so ridiculous,, only people with hobby of collecting historical or something with story will do it but for someone like me that really need to work hard just to earn a good amount of bucks would be crazy doing it.
