A Chinese businessman has bought an interesting and unusual paperweight for his office. Purchased on eBay, the new addition to the decor around the old office is awaiting Chinese Government approval before it can be brought into the country. Why, you ask?
Because it's a MiG-21f fighter jet.
"I like to collect valuable items. I have the buying power and my company has an empty space where I can display the plane," the newspaper quoted Zhang as saying.
The eBay Web site for the transaction shows the plane is currently located in Lewiston, Idaho.
It said the fighter jet, last flown in 1995, has been inspected by a museum and found to be in excellent condition.
The seller was only identified by the username "inkgirle."
The story doesn't say whether the new paperweight comes with missiles.
Here's a picture of the new paperweight:
