VANOC workers got a chance to buy the backup torches, probably for about $400 or $500, so a lot of them are being flipped.

Even the prices on eBay have plummeted from about $1500 to under $1000 in a span of about three days.

As indicated by 7seven, VANOC employees have the option of buying the unused torches for $350. It bugs me that employees got them for "cheap", only for them to turn around and re-sell them for 2x+ the original price!

If VANOC wanted to get the most money for these items to help recover costs, maybe they should have just auctioned them off...

If work wasn't so slow right now, I's probably pay $700 or so for one...

Appears he is a runner for the Paralympic Torch Relay?

No lineups at the downtown bay. None of the nice stuff left. A worker said they are bringing in stuff from other bay stores out east but they wont be getting anymore mittons or the canada scarfs.

TRD604 would only be a runner for the Special Olympics.

you know what, you're absolutely right. I was mixing those two up. Fail on my part. In that case, Sumi without a hat can be the special olympic mascot!
