Guy who bid $100k real life money for a space station in Project Entropia feels he can make his money back in a month (he also got a $200k offer the day after he won it): http://news.com.com/Banking+on+a+virtual+economy/2008-1043_3-5974118.html?part=rss&tag=5974118&subj=news

I wouldn't be surpised if he did. Project Entropia uses rl cash for it's economy, no selling on ebay for these guys.
