Sum Sung cashes in at Apple.


Sumsung and Apple have a lot in common aside from their bitter rivalry that is, Sum Sung once worked for Apple. Before you begin to question this statement I am of course referring to the former Apple employee "Sum Sung" probably the guy at the reciting end of many a pun or joke.

Sum sung who worked at an Apple store based in Canada and is by no means has any association with Apples biggest South Korean competitor, this however hasn't prevented people from bidding large amounts to own Sam Sung's old business card from when he worked at Apple. http://bit.ly/ssng201

Mr Sung is auctioning his former Apple business card which also holds the name of the company's main competitor, as well as his Apple in-store shirt and lanyard presumably also with similar hallmarks. Mr Sung is selling the items in question on eBay to raise funds for the British Columbia and Yukon chapter of the Children's Wish, which acts as a non-profit organization to help and aid sick children.

 The last known actual bid placed was at over $80,000 http://bit.ly/ssng201 (maybe a Samsung employee wishes to remove quite these form the market) Mr Sung had also asked in the auction for people not to place fake bids especially considering the viral nature of this particular item since the story breaking.
If you want to own such a weird yet very humorous peace of tech nostalgia for years to come and you have some ready cash, then you still have eight days to ace your bids
I guess it echoes what myself and other technology savvy users have been saying for years, if you want to sell something for a lot of money make sure it has an Apple logo on it!
