Call me when they sell the D

I guess I’m just too cheap to win auctions. It’s very rare for me to bid on something at eBay, but this morning I couldn’t resist a letter:

It’s the letter “a” from the Disneyland marquee. I bid it up to $960, but still someone outbid me. And frankly, that’s as high as I’m gonna go for a lower case letter, you know? At least I have the satisfaction of knowing that someone is gonna pay more for it than if I had come along.

Dammit.

The “y” is also for sale, but it’s in pretty rough shape. There’s also an “s” (get all three and spell “say”).

Hmm… now that I look deeper, it seems that all the letters are there — they must have completely replaced that sign. Maybe I’ll bid on an “n” next!
