Up to now, The Trog has eschewed the tip jar*. But <em>this</em> might make me change my mind:

Or could I put this on my Christmas list?

An original Darth Vader costume is expected to sell for up to £230,000 when it is put up for auction next month. It’s the latest in a series of costumes and props from the hit films to be auctioned over the years.

Wow. How much is that in real money?

* Not out of any sense of self-righteousness, mind you, but because there are better places to spend your tip-jar pennies. And because The Trog has simply been too lazy to figure out how to do it.
