When he called and began asking questions, the seller said: Look these are expensive minutes on this phone. Either you wanna buy it or you don't!! My husband replied, well, I don't and hung up! Why would someone place an ad with their # if they didn't want people to call them?

It isn't like you aren't going to see it in it's actual condition! Love the sink and chandy. I say lower it a tad. I have the same swan! Love her (or him). Mine is disquised as a ghost at the moment but will be full of fall flowers once November hits. I always look at craiglist but haven't found much. Now I will have to look further because you have some great finds!

But I do check out my competition and a LOT of stuff on the Charlotte list is so awful it just needs to be dumped in the trash.<br />I've had the opposite problem as you lately - I go to the trouble of taking multiple photos, posting detailed description, measurements, etc. Then someone emails me the first day asking if X item is still available. I respond that it is and then I never hear from them again!
