POPE BENEDICT XVI'S CAR NOW OFFICIALLY IN THE HANDS OF GOLDENPALACE.COM!

GoldenPalace.com presents cheque for $244,590.83 USD to eBay seller live on popular German television show Stern TV!

Story Summary:

Internet casino GoldenPalace.com, known mostly for its eccentric eBay purchases, does it again. Their recent eBay auction win is easily one of the most popular events in Internet history -- more than 8.5 million people viewed the auction and the item that shattered all eBay records was Pope Benedict XVI's previously owned 1999 Volkswagen Golf.

Over the last 24 hours, GoldenPalace.com has completed its transaction with eBay seller Benjamin Halbe. The GoldenPalace.com team travelled to Olpe to pick up its latest acquisition. Then GoldenPalace.com CEO Richard Rowe formally presented a cheque to the seller for €188,938.88 (approx. $244,590.83 USD) live on popular German television show Stern TV, in front of a viewing audience of 3 million.

GoldenPalace.com is now responding to the demand to see the car by taking it on a worldwide tour. An SMS text voting campaign will allow people to vote for a Tour Stop in their home town.
