The real white elephant is a pale pachyderm that has long been an object of veneration in India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Myanmar. Too revered to be a beast of burden, the white elephant earned a reputation as a burdensome beast, one that required constant care and feeding but never brought a single cent (or paisa or satang or pya) to its owner. One story has it that the kings of Siam (the old name for Thailand) gave white elephants as gifts to those they wished to ruin, hoping that the cost of maintaining the voracious but sacred mammal would drive its new owner to the poorhouse.

Please only bid if you are intending to pay . I seem to have a lot of non-payers at the moment and also a number of items 'lost' to buyers . I have never not received an item I have bought , yet I seem to have lots of buyers who mysteriously don't get expensive items !
