The show is having a [estate sale](http://www.estatesalesla.com/calendar.html) for all the props from their show. Someone please buy Gob’s casket, or Buster’s army uniform… and take pictures. ---

Is that show still on? I think I sat through part of the pilot and gave up then. ---

If it were still on, they probably wouldn’t be selling all of their props. ---

On Thursday I put in a call to the people running this sale. They said it’s not happening yet and they will send me a list of the 120-odd items on Tuesday. I am not clear on how it’s going to be run, but maybe I will be able to bid on something. I’ll post the list when I get it, if anyone is interested. ---

A friend of mine actually went to the sale on the first day. Here’s the email he sent me: > [@](#): > > I went to this, and it wasn’t really an auction as expected, more of a huge > garage sale. I only saw three things of interest and when I got there at 8:20 > all had sold… the Aztec Chamber (or whatever it was called), the Cornballer > (over your price range and what would I have done with it?) and the coolers > that George’s Saddam H. papers were in. > > I looked around for 15 min, but most of the rest consisted scarily of people > actually buying things for their home or everyday use. Nothing as interesting > as Buster’s hook or the Rhoomba he loved. It was also all cash only and the > line was crazy due to the sad nature of those appointed to administer the > sale… I think it moved 3 people in the time I was there. > > Interestingly, none of the items pictured on the web page had sold. The casket > was $700. It’s pretty funny that stuff from the Bluth Co. model home will be used in actual real homes in the future.
