How much would you bid on play "house" that's mini replica of the Black Pearl?

I'm not kidding. At our local Walmart they are raffling 3 playhouses and auctioning off a "playhouse" (ship?) that is done up like a pirate ship and they named it the Black Pearl! It is SO FREAKING COOL! I want it! (not to mention my kids!) This is for the Make A Wish foundation. You enter through the galley, it has porthole windows, a little desk with a pirate chess table, guns, swords on the walls (we couldn't go in, just look in through the portholes), rope ladder leading up to the deck. Then there are a few steps up to the upper deck and captains wheel, there are huge masts (is that what they are called? the things they hang the sails from?) It is just so cool! The bidding is already up to $2200! Bidding ends Sunday, it's for a good cause right?

It is hand made by a local home builder for the auction. I'm thinking the HOA may not like it, but there is nothing in the covenants about what we put in our backyards. It is absolutely huge, at least 12 feet with the masts, maybe more. And he did paint "Black Pearl" on the back and side too. It is sooo tempting!
