London theatrical costume company Angels is auctioning off some iconic movie costumes, like the Star Wars cloak worn by Alex Alec Guinness as Obi-Wan Kenobi:

But buyers were waiting for the star lot at the Bonhams sale, the brown hooded cloak worn by Guinness when he played Obi-Wan Kenobi in the first Star Wars film. It was estimated to fetch between 50,000 pounds and 60,000 pounds.

    Alec Guinness was in Star Wars: A New Hope. He played Obi-Wan Kenobi or "Ben" Kenobi. So they didn't get screwed, except paying way too much for a piece of cloth.
