i think ive just purchased something crap  

.
Give them 25.00 to relist it?Buy in haste repent in lesisure, thats an old saying.Everyone has made mistakes not everyone LEARNS something from them, if your unsure get a second opinion if you have time!I know, that JUST listed buy it NOW can be quite a lure at times...

Can't say....
Can't say if you made a mistake or not unless you swallow your embarasement and lettuce c-it

C'mon
Let's see it! Who cares? I have bought some regrettable things before. Who hasn't?
Swallow your pride - show it - and we'll vote on it!

Yes show it!
Maybe someone here is looking for that very thing and you can quickly turn it around and be rid of it, if that is what you wish.

We might
even be able to suggest modifications to make it better suit your needs and space. Let's see !

ok here goes
Well I looked again this morning at my purchase and 'what was i thinking?' It is not even going to suit the space. I have been searching for something round that extends to oval in rosewood - yeh go figure! My partner reckons that we should go through with the sale and get through christmas and then sell it later.
The old table that it is replacing ive been dragging around with me since i moved out of home but i think that even will look better.
I have also provided pictures of the space. Forgive the junk everywhere, lack of paintings etc.....we have just moved into the extension.
Go on have a look - I will take it on the chin! http://www.flickr.com/photos/14975711@N06/

Not all that bad but since you sell on ebay its better to go ahead with the sale,you might ask to give them 25.00 to relist it?I think you will recoup your money at a later date...

as big Tony says ...
as big Tony says ........forget about it.....

Can't really comment
on the table, but boy is Australia doing some really great looking modern architecture. Whenever I see a current magazine on modern architecture, invariably a large percentage of the featured houses were designed and built in Australia. Love your house.

I wouldn't complete the sale
If you think you made a mistake, just let the seller know and pay whatever he'll be charged by eBay. Personally, I think the table looks gauche 1960s/1970s and inconsistent with the rest of your sleek furniture and home.
$400 is a lot of money. Making a mistake on eBay can happen, and backing out of a sale shouldn't be a problem if you just pay the seller any eBay fees.

Seeing your house the set is not close in clarity/quality of design.Australia does have quality modernist architecture, here in Austin Texas USA most of the mid century influenced houses are "tarted up" and complex nostalgic ideas of modern...

I forgot we lived in the same city! I know what you mean about Austin modernism.

The idea of Austin Modernism
can be applied to a lot of areas in the country, especially the tarted up part.
