Unhappy Another flea market story
Hi all,

to make a long story short, I was at drop and shop last Sunday and I spotted a 10 drawer cabinet that I thought I could paint-anyways dh does'nt see the value in it that I did. So i passed it up at 10.00$. Well, low and behold as I'm walking thru the flea market today-I see the cabinet that I passed on. I'm stunned to see it marked for 150.00$. Yup, i let a antique typesetter stand go.
