Yeah. The price for the second one without overpaying is a lot higher. But if you pay double the value of the cheap item, you hurt yourself a lot less than if you pay double the value of the expensive one.

Given the known and obvious risks of acquiring Eichel, plus that $10 million cap hit, I'd say some of the proposals getting tossed around probably are about twice his value.
