'Lost' auction: The Dharma van went for HOW much?!

Only in the world of Lost would a VW Bus be worth more than a vintage Camaro. At the official auction of Lost memorabilia — run by auction house Profiles in History on Aug. 21 and 22 — the iconic blue-and-white Dharma van won the highest bid, a whopping $47,500. (Hurley’s bitchin’ Camaro, meanwhile, netted a cool 20 grand.) More than 1,100 lots of props and costumes from the ABC series went up for bid online and in a Santa Monica, Calif. warehouse, including the time-shifting frozen donkey wheel (which went for $22,500), a pilot script signed by J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof ($15,000), 12 cans of Dharma beer ($5,000), Jin’s wedding ring ($4,750), Locke’s wheelchair ($3,250), and Sawyer’s paperback copy of Watership Down ($2,750). (An undetermined portion of the proceeds will go to Hawaii-based charities.) And to the person who won Jacob’s lighthouse mechanism and mirror array for $27,500: Good luck getting that thing to work again.
