How much do you think they cost to CO?

What would be the likely retail price if I wanted one for the entrance to my hexagonal living room with expansive views from Mt. Tapochau?

The winning bid in a CO auction for this item would be about 3 million miles.

It disappeared on Saturday while Larry was speaking. It was there when he started and the doors to the room were closed. It was gone when they opened them up again.

Do you suppose it was an employee of Marriott? Wanting to sell it on ebay?? I think the whole thing is really unbelievable.... :(

...because someone asked CO if we could keep the signs and get them autographed, and they said that was okay. As far as I know, the boarding signs, poles, ropes, and carpets were left alone -- only the marketing posters you normally see in the jetways were taken, after being granted permission by CO staff present at the event.

To be honest, I didn't even notice the carpet was missing when leaving the meeting. I'm so obilvious. :)

Any sign?
 
It's been a while since the Blue Carpet was first reported missing. Has it popped up on eBay yet? Or is it in a riff-raff Silver's living room?
