Cowboys Neon Sign?

[Dale]

I'm hoping to start a recreational room one of these days, and something I've always wanted to add to the collection was one of those bar-style Cowboys neon signs. For instance, a Miller Lite Cowboys one (the ones that say "Light" and then have the Cowboys helmet surrounding it).

Does anyone know, other than ebay, where these can be purchased? Is there a way to purchase them cheaper directly from the beer companies? I've seen the prices range from $200-$500 and before I take that plunge, wanted to make sure there wasn't a cheaper route to go.

My friend got a Spurs version for free because his uncle used to own a bar and gave it to him.

Here's one for $350:

Dunno about shipping. I doubt you'll find one super cheap, but you might want to ask one of the eBay sellers where they get theirs and they may tell you. Chances are they won't since they'll want you to buy from them, but it wouldn't hurt.

Good work Jacs, but let me explain what those really look like if you guys have never seen them...

the fourth one down is really the only "traditional-type" neon sign... the others look good (I have seen them before)... but they don't look so much like the bar-type...

They are sheets of acrylic with the logo laser cut and frosted. The neon is hidden on one side and the sign and the laser logo reflects the light when it hits the logo. Also, the shipping costs on these are rather high...

They do look pretty sharp but he may be looking more for one like this...

Sign such as these will run upwards of $250...

Yeah trickblue and Avery, that was the kind I was referring to. Was just wanting to double check to make sure there wasn't a cheaper way to get one of those that I had missed. Thanks for the info guys.
