If I had
the money I would buy it just to do some metal detecting there.

Entire Old West town up for grabs on eBay
TORTILLA FLATS, Ariz.
-- An entire Old West Arizona town has gone on the electronic auction block
with an asking price of $5.5 million, the Mesa Tribune reported Thursday.
Tortilla Flat, a historic tourist town of splintered-wood buildings and dust is
posted on the eBay auction site, and its listing has logged more than 6,500
hits, the newspaper said. Nestled in the Superstition Mountains about 18 miles
northeast of Apache Junction, the 1904 town offers prickly pear cactus ice
cream, half-pound cowboy burgers and saddle seating at the bar. Dave Levi, 54,
who has co-owned the town for five years with his sister and brother-in-law,
Pam and Alvin Ross, said he is "getting too old for this stuff."
"That little place is just like running a city. It's a young man or young
couple's business," he said. The land on which the town sits is leased
from the Tonto National Forest Service. The 20-year, renewable and transferable
land lease, now in its third year, is included in the sale.
