    Talking Used Bathroom vanity

    I am so excited!! We moved into our house 1 yr ago. It is only like 3 yrs old. It has a really big master bathroom in it but the builder for some reason only put a little one sink vanity in it, so I have had major storage issues in the bathrooms. The other bathroom just has a pedistal sink so no storage there either. We have looked at lowes and home depot and it cost around $400 just for the vanity not including the countertop or the faucets and stuff. We just didn't want to pay that right now. I decided that I was going to post a wanted ad on our local radio station website for the vanity. It is called Fleabay, I have sold stuff through them before but never placed a wanted ad. I figured it would take a while to start getting any calls because the chances of someone have a vanity just lying around wasn't very good. Well the same day it posted I got a call. For $125 I got a custom made maple 8ft long vanity with marble top and an 8ft long by 4ft high mirror to go over it and it included the facuets.The only thing that is wrong with it is it is missing two door but I am going to paint it all white then make a nice little curtain and hang it with a tension rod to replace the doors. 8ft worth of storageJust had to share. If I remember I will post pictures after we get it installed.
