Halo sword for realz?

The internet is the spawn of everything crazy to cats with guns. I was searching a picture for one of my projects and I saw this.

It's life like, it's a real Halo sword!

I don't know what the ending price was but if anyone knows, please leave a comment! I'm really interested how much that thing actually sold for. The Geekologic blog stated it was selling at $255 dollars with 2 days left on the bidding. If your in shock the price for the real life sword was so cheap, let me tell you that Ebay has this nasty habit of raising by 50% in the last hour. Well I'm off to bed, goodnight!
