Here is the link, alas, Ebay lacks a sense of humor; they took down the auction:

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc and Merrill Lynch & Co Inc may be about to disappear from the Wall Street landscape, but their memorabilia commanded a premium on Monday.

Lehman coffee mugs and golf balls emblazoned with Merrill's logo were among several dozen items up for sale on eBay Inc's online auction site after Lehman filed for bankruptcy protection and Merrill agreed to a $50 billion takeover by Bank of America Corp.

A classic black-and-white Merrill T-shirt was getting bids of $20, while a gold-toned blazer button with the company's bull logo was offered for $13.

Lehman coffee mugs fetched as much as $40 per cup, with 22 bids in, while the firm's minimalist green and white duffel bag was on offer for $150. A green baseball cap had already received $33 in bids, with about four hours left to make an offer.

Enterprising merchants bought rights to related Internet domain names, like lehmanbankruptcy.com, and offered to sell them for as much as $5,000.
