Check the link out to this on ebay, I've never seen a fermenter this big. And no I'm not the one selling it.

Overkill or what?
You would need to be doing 5 batches of all grain @ 40l boil volume, or 9 standard kits at once, to fill it. I wonder if the guy is selling it because it turned out to be a bit of a white elephant.
Remember, it's about quality not quantity. Or at least quality in reasonable, not ridiculous, quantity.

Pretty fancy piece of kit,

220 though, Nah, could almost get a good new stainless conical for that price

Ouch. That's a lot of bottles to wash and cap on bottling day.

There are downsides to quantity.

Well, someone picked it up for $220.50...whether it turns out to be a bargain or not.
