Just shows though all this fancy tec does not stop going to sea being a dangerous activity. “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

As a diver I can say that those searching the ship have a terrible task, I speak from experience only thing to be thankful for is that the loss of life was not greater but every loss of human life is one too many

It would appear that some passengers from the are reportedly trying to cash in on the tragedy by selling items from the vessel on eBay.
One eBay user tried to sell a one euro token from the ship's casino for £573.94, while another was offering the chance to buy the 'genuine object' for £1,147
Other reports say that a model of the ship is also up for auction for £126.91 and several people are trying to sell postcards of the ship in its heyday.

Hi all I agree that its a bit naughty that people are selling bits of the Concordia but is it any different from selling Titanic memorabilia or objects from the 1st 2nd world wars or any conflict they all have a history of death or association with it in one way or another, or is that time makes the selling of these things ok. regards Andy  Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
