This actual paste from an email I rcvd today demonstrates how hard it is to buy a rig. I inquired about buying 3 large jackups. Part of the reply follows:

3 x 300 ft jack-ups - are you buying or chartering, would you be interested
in newbuildings? I may be able to provide you with n/b's within 14-16
months at US$90-100 mill a piece or less.
