No buyers, so, it'll never be for sale again. I'll put it back with the rest of my collection of love letters...Ha!...her letter is just an appropriate thank you note for my building of a replacement fork for her bike in 1992. There's no mention at all of her observed shrinkage of me in my skin suit.
