Criminal for Hire

These sinks are so perfect (and perfectly out of reach, pricewise) that I might be persuaded to kill, hogtie or whip someone with a wet noodle to get my greedy little hands on them. So if someone needs a job done, I’m your girl.


Or if you’re a long-lost rich relative wishing to buy me a present, anything at all from this site will do.

*In case it’s not obvious, I’M JOKING.

    You’re funny. It’s so horrible really wanting something, isn’t it?

    Remember, as Sheryl Crow says…

    It’s not having what you want…
    It’s wanting what you’ve got.

    Personally, I think she’s full of pa-toody. I say rob the bank.

    We have one of those old kitchen sinks leaning against the wall in the basement and another one on the third floor. If anyone is interested. I can’t unload the bath tub, maybe someone will want a sink!

    Oh thanks for that link! I’m looking at ideas for faucets, fixtures and acessories now. We definitely have the same taste!

    The owner of the site told me, “If you are stocking your bathroom with eBay buys, you do not have the budget that will allow you to buy from Vintage Plumbing.”

    Blunt but true.

    The owner of the site is rude and a terrible business person. Many people choose “splurge items” occasionally and I know where I’m definitely NOT taking any lottery winnings that I might ever get. What a snob! I’ll bet that they didn’t complain about all the free click through traffic and advertising that you generated for them!

    So you thought it was snobby, too? I wasn’t sure if maybe I was just taking it wrong. Anyway, why would I spend $300 on an antique nickel-plated soap holder from him when I can get the same thing from eBay for $40?

    Totally snobby! I can’t believe that ANYONE would say those things! What an idiot.
