Kat, I've decided to quit concerning myself with it...not much one can do. If it is someone I have traded with (and know) I will maybe put a link to the 'right' (original post with the correct spelling and all), and try and point future posters in that direction...otherwise I figure members can/will take care of it themselves maybe(?). That way, at least I can help those I 'know.'

Having been through the "vessel drain dilemna" just a few things to consider. As you know, there are two types of bathroom sink drains - standard and "vessel style". ...and most faucets come with the standard type "pop up" drain, so these won't work on any sink (vessel or not) that doesn't have an overflow. There are many types of vessel style drains - "grid style" "umbrella", etc. but basically they either allow you to stop up the water or not. One clarification on umberella style drains - some are "static" so you cannot stop up the water and some you can push and they will seal up - push again and it opens. The latter can be spendy but they are more functional if you fill up your basin with water on occassion. Hope this helps.

Depending on what you're selling, there are other on-line possibilities (for instance, http://www.audiogon.com for audio gear). But kittiemom actually provided you with two answers: the auction list and the fact that she (like almost everyone else) hasn't gone anywhere but eBay. Other auction sites exist, but eBay is the 800-pound gorilla in that arena right now. I have "notify-me" searches active at three auction sites. The only place I ever hear from is eBay. The others just don't have that kind of traffic. For the most visibility for a sale and the highest potential price, eBay is the place to go.

bbstx, Boy, wouldn't THAT be fun! Shopping eBay with other people's money! lorriekay, Jenny is my 'shoulder dog'. When I adopted her from the shelter, she blended in immediately with the boys, and slept on my shoulder that first night. She has cuddled close every night since. I don't know what I'd do without my little girl, who shows me every day how happy she is to be part of this family. arapaho, the colors are Ben Moore's Baked Terra Cotta below the chair rail and their Philadelphia Cream above. The last shot does not show them correctly, as I tried to adjust the exposure, but the other two do. Spending time on eBay was the way I got to used to it...lots of time, but I have learned a LOT. Not just how to bid, but actually been educated on the types of things I buy. I'll start down one path, by looking for an item, and then see that a seller has something else, and veer down another path. It's a very 'zigzag' trail, if I were to map it out. It's a hobby that has turned into a passion, as it fuels my love of decorating inexpensively. I cannot tell you how many times I have bought something and then found it selling for hundreds more elsewhere, as in the case of this table. Imagine the thrill of winning it for $341 on eBay, and later seeing two more on 1stdibs, for $1000 from one seller and $1575 from another. Same with Craigslist, which I discovered a few years ago. I'll thank my lucky stars for the rest of my life for finding these 30" tall hand painted wooden lamps below on CL, and buying the pair for $35! They are incredible quality, and try as I might, I have not seen anything similar anywhere. Vintage often = unique, and that I love. In the photo below, everything except for the clock, the pheasant, and the 'seed ball' came from eBay or CL. The antique Ogee mirror was $16.00, and I added the gold and black touches to it. I have always liked warm colors and adding blue in the entry and dining room was a stretch, but I needed to break out of my comfort zone, and experiment. The three dogs add warmth and nuttiness to any room, so I'm happy with it. Sharing my babies with fellow pet lovers here is a thrill! sheesharee, I can easily understand you questioning the table. Years ago, I may not have looked at it twice. I have 'refined' my taste over the years, and this one, with it's small size and simplicity, just struck me. To me, it appears classic and refined, (Two things you might not think of if you knew me!) and I love it with this sofa. But, it may not work with my other chenille one, which is in the basement right now. I think that one needs more weight in a table. As I sit here in my office, I look out to the living room, and seeing this one against the nail heads of the leather CL sofa, it's singing my song! :-) I had looked for many weeks for a coffee table, and not stepped one foot into a local store. I confined my search to online (eBay and CL mostly) because the ones in the stores are too large, too pricey and I will take vintage or antique ANY day of the week over new. It's just the way I have evolved. To me, those older things have a built in warmth, and often are made better than similarly priced items new.
