It is truly a weird and wonderful world of things you can buy out there. Last year I contemplated buying a 100-tonne crane in New Jersey, which was going for about $5,000. The only issue was that you had to go pick it up yourself...

I saw someone in court getting a lengthy for stealing all the enormous counterweights from cranes and taking them for their scrap metal value. Apparently they are very expensive.
