Well, I waited and waited and waited and she didn't call back. I was disappointed.
I went back to the post and saw that she only had her shop open on Thursdays, so I gave it another shot and guess what? She picked up the phone!
Now the bad news. She said she didn't get my message and sold the mirror the day before.
But here is some good news, she sold it to another antique shop. She was kind enough to give me the contact information of the shop that bought it and I called there.
They picked up right away and found that they still had it and wanted $100 for it.....Wow! what a profit in just one day! I asked them if that was the best price and they said yes. I thought a moment and decided to ask them to hold it for me and let them know a friend of mine would stop by to take a look at it.
Since my friend was in the neighborhood she was there in nothing flat. She called and said the mirror had a bit of hazing, but the frame looked really good. It was up me, if it was worth $100.
We talked back and forth a bit, and then I talked to the lady and was able to get the price down to $79...which was ok.
So now this beauty is resting in our shop and waiting from me to give it a new purpose! Woo hoo!
Aloha A Hui Hou!
So glad you could work a deal! Can't wait to see what you do with it!!
