I guess the economy really is picking up. Best of luck finding "SIMULAR" million-pound trinkets.

It's an anchor price.

No, really, that's how anchor prices work.

Does that mean they will sell simular for £1m or will buy Simular for £1m?

What is 'simular' anyhow?

The plot thickens...

That wasn't the original price, he bumped it up to stop anyone else buying it.

This is still available though.

If it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a unique bike, how can anyone have something similar to sell? That would make it more like a twice-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a non-unique machine.

Similar could be a different colour. It would make it unique and a once in a lifetime opportunity.
