    Default Whatcha Lookin' For?

    How about if we post if there is anything we are looking for? Maybe when you go to garage sales, you always have your eyes open for a certain something. Well, could be something that someone at the village is looking to sell or trade! So, post what you are currently ISO and people can contact each other if they have any of what you need! You can negotiate with each other and strike a deal. What could be easier?

    I've got about 50 cross stitch booklets. Some are Vanessa-Ann collection patterns that have the quilt and sewing projects in them with the cross stitch.

    If you want them, PM me and let me know what you are interested in.

    I'm looking for a pair of accent chairs for my living room. I prefer something that looks like one of these styles below....

    I'd pay a finders' fee for someone who can help me find the very best deal, if I can order it much cheaper including shipping than I can buy them here. Seems like, and I'm gonna have to check again but they are about $299. here for the leather ones.

    ~ Bedroom suite for Katie--she has bunk beds,that I hate and her and Jackson jump off of Someone is gonna get hurt....She also has an old antique (or I believe it is) dresser. It was Steves moms and I hate to get rid of it but it's not working out in her room. They also jump off of that

    ~Old kitchen scales and sifters.I have some above my cabinets and would love to have more.I have 3 or 4 people looking at yard sales/thrift stores for me lol

    ~A buyer for our boat lol

    ~One of these

    ~And this--but with just the original Hershey bar...

    ~A purse. I dont know what brand they are or anything other than the ones I have seen are mostly multi-colored with pinks,blues,greens,white, and have been stripped...the sides,where the strap would meet the purse...it had some sort of a buckle type thingy or clip. I've seen some women carrying them but always to shy to ask where they got it at.Next time I see one,I'm asking...I want one!!!

    Lisa~Do you have a Mazers Furniture store there? Or on their site,you may can find one close. I know I've seen chairs like these you want in there but not if they are exactly as what you want.
    They're not antiques.....is that what you want?

    course anything ceramic related art supplies.

    art tablet/paper

    really, just about anything.

    1. I'm looking for audio books (books on tape) for children ages 7-13. It can come with or without the book as long as the tape is in very good condition.

    2. Playstation games...in the case, with the instruction book and only in very good condition. I'm looking for games for a 7 year old girl rated E

    3. Computer games (educational or just for fun)...in the case, with the instruction book and only in very good condition. I'm looking for games for ages 7-12.

    4. Books on character traits for children such as dealing with anger or how to be compassionate, etc. I'm not looking for adult books, I only want books that are written for children. I'll need the exact title and author so I can do a search on it.

    5. Exercise videos for children...preferably yoga/stretching/relaxation but will consider other types of exercise. I'll need the exact title so I can do a search for it.

    6. Junior Yahtzee board game. In good conditon with all pieces.

    7. Childrens movies that I may not already have. If you have movies that don't get watched any more, let me know what you have as long as they're for ages 7-12 G or PG rated.

    I can pay using paypal. Please give me your best price and include media rate shipping to 34482. To avoid going back and forth with several e-mails, please include a description and condition with your message. Thanks!!!

    Tammy the chairs don't have to be antiques, reproductions will probably be closer to my budget. I also need to qualify my offer to pay a finders' fee with "IF I can still afford the chairs when I get my flooring done....!" . We ordered it yesterday and it's going to cost the equivalent to a third world country's national debt. Ugh. Anyway I haven't heard of the store you mentioned Tammy but I'm gonna look there and see what I can find. Thanks!
