    none except for crappy hub caps and floor mats.
    Totally suck. I actually really loved watching his commercials. You don't find people like that much out there. I also wonder what's going to happen to his company. He was pretty much THE company.

    Did Billy actually own anything in terms of a business? He's a pitchman and has developed/marketed his own *signature* products (like Oxyclean) but I don't know if he's the sole owner of any empire.

    He deals with Telebrands...and some of those big shots.

    Besides...his Son - Billy Mays III - will take the reigns I'm sure with Sullivan right there to help him out.

    I've always enjoyed his commercials.......he made me laugh. His parents must be half deaf or he was because of that loud voice. R.I.P. Billy Mays!
