Hey guys, this is from your neck of the woods, Tampa, Florida.

They are only asking for $300. I think they could make a lot more if they filed for the $1 Mil.

Mummy of a Mermaid

Proof that humans evolved from fish. This authentic flesh and bones mermaid came from a local bay, Tampa Bay to be precise. The skin,fins,skull,teeth, and eyes are real once living organic flesh and bones.
Dried and preserved specimen has no fishy scent at all. A wire has been attached from the back bone so that you can hang her up on a wall. She is 25 inches long.

Will ship anywhere but buyer pays for postage which will be determined later. I only charge you actual shipping costs. No profit made from packing and shipping.

Ebay? The Smithsonian would probably pay more than 300 bucks for this. I'd buy it but just spent my last 300 on a jackelope.

That doesn't even LOOK real.

B minus for effort.

No kidding. Mermaid's eyes are on the sides of their heads.

Oh, this is rich. For some reason I can't search Worth1000 (http://www.worth1000.com) at the moment, but I'd lay odds that you'd find that picture there.

Humans did evolve from fish, we've known that for a long time. ;)

When I saw the attached photo "she" looked bigger than the 25 inches and I felt that was a better deal than some of the other "mermaids" I'd seen, but I'm not paying more than $100 unless they make one that's at least 5 feet long/tall.

Appears to be closely related to the mermaid found after the Indian Ocean Tsunami (http://www.snopes.com/photos/tsunami/mermaid.asp) although it's odd that it seems to be a different species to the other one found in Florida. (http://www.snopes.com/photos/odd/mermaid.asp)

Admit it- you just want one that's anatomically correct.

That one is antomically corrrect, although it looks more like a merman. Ahem. I can't help but think of Fry and Umbirel's diastrous bedroom escapade in "Futurama".
