If you thought it’s only Apple’s products that people go all crazy about and spend huge amounts to get one (including selling a kidney in one case), this might shake up your beliefs – Google’s soon-to-be-released Nexus 7 tablet was sold for a whopping $1825 on eBay!

That’s around $1600 higher than the $199/$249 price the tablet will retail at when it hits the market two weeks later. Waiting those two weeks would have gotten the buyer a Nexus 7 and left him with enough money to spend on other stuff, like a high-end Android phone or perhaps another tablet. But then, rational thinking probably isn’t the best quality in someone who spends $1800 on a $199 tablet, is it?
