Its beyond ridiculous.....I...
Its beyond ridiculous.....I saw them first on Friday-that's right, Friday. They were in front of a building near a set back entrance (kind of like a stoop) to a ground level food prep, catering operation. I made a brief inquiry inside about them that day, and although no-one knew why they were there, a couple people told me that they didn't think they were trash. Well, I went back today on my lunch hour and they were STILL there (How this is possible, I don't know, as its literally a half a block away-on the same side of the street as a big well picked thrift shop.) This time I went inside and asked everybody in the place. The person in charge told me that they had been there for a few days, no-one knew where they had come from and I was free to take them. They acted like I was doing them a favor taking the chairs away. Totally fucking crazy!!!!!!!

Wowee!
I paid $1500 for a set of six of those! (OK, mine were rosewood, but still. Can you hear me making choking noises?)

Heywood Wakefield
I bought a Heywood Wakefield kneehole desk in wheat at my local thrift store (on my way to work). I was able to pick it up for very little money (I think it was $20).
I tried to load it into the back of my VW beetle, and some guy with a pick-up truck in the parking lot took pity on me and offered to deliver it. LOL. I was so worried that someone would try to buy it before I could, that I took out one of the drawers and stood in line with it!
It need to be refinished, but I love it!
Sorry my pics aren't as good as all of yours! 🙂

I like the very subtle application of electrical wires. Wakefield would be proud.

Lol
I thought I looked kind of sculptural 😉
I haven't quite figured out where to put it, for now it's working hard as my daily work desk, including empty coffe mugs, and ugly mouse pads.

Love
the fact you're straight on anybody else that offers to buy anything on here, yet you have no qualms about doing it yourself. I smell hypocrisy.

Tynellbuyer's a snake with fingers. At least the guy on the Finmar thread said he wanted to sell. Unbefuckinlievable.

it does seem like
we should have a on the sidelines way of discussing acquiring one another's stuff. something less formal than Radar. A secret signal like $>- that would say in essence "I love that! I want it! I will buy it! Let's take this offline!"
You know, just among friends...
