Is it really legal to sell parts of the moon?

whatsamsn

Before you think I am a nut, im not :P
Take a look here , here and here


So is this really legal for any joe-blow to say he can sell parts of the 'moon' or even other planets?
.. surely they cant all be crazy american websites citing an crazy american law, right?

I own the moon, you can have it for €50, I'll PM my PayPal details

Space is the final frontier for property developers too you know.

Maybe this is why the Aliens who visited last week were really pissed. You people try to buy everything.

whatsamsn

We all know this is a con, lol.
But .. is there really anything stopping a random person just creating another site and being within the law? lol.

I mean, if an irish person could do this. I'd be selling all the planets. lol.

AlmightyCushion

It's not illegal but the person buying it would be better off flushing it down the toilet.

Sure but I get 120% cut.

whatsamsn

thats not fair. 140% is reasonable.
lol.

But in all seriousness. there surely must be some illegal-ness to this?
if no illegal law to sell portions of the moon. surely illegal aspects in conning people?

I'd like to see this land before i buy it. Will whoever is selling this acre pay for my trip to the moon, and if i do make the purchase, transport building materials and skilled craftsmen so i can build my own house?

Those prices are quite ridiculous...I'll undercut them by about 15-20% or so to get more customers = more moon money for me

And never mind limiting myself to the Moon, I'll sell off bits of Mars, Jupiter, Saturn etc...even poor little Pluto will be sold off

Everything is legal until someone goes to the trouble of making it illegal.

Not surprisingly, the status of real estate on the moon has not been a pressing issue for any successful politicians yet.

You can bet on these sales being laughed out the door when it comes to actually doing anything with the moon mind you.

If it is legal, I'll bet an Irish Property dealer bought some for 20bn

Why are you on this forum if you hate the Irish so much?

galwayrush

:pac:Buy to rent, the courts will obviously send in the sheriff to collect if you can't collect the rent. Perfectly legal....:pac:

I've been pissed off with the moon ever since I found out that it wasn't really made of cheese.

AAAAAAAHAHAHAHA, moon property. Fairplay to the guys running the website.

But seriously, what would anyone be doing, allowing the notion enter their head, that they could own a 'property' on the moon?? The all deserve what coming to them. Back to the OP, I'd say you could easily find a loophole in law to operate sites like these.

Check this woman out, she claims she owns the sun and is going to start charging haha, http://www.treehugger.com/files/2010/11/woman-in-spain-now-owns-the-sun.php
