Twin Mirrors

It always incences me to find an item at one site listed for a moderate, fair price and then see the same, exact item at another site for an outrageous price. But this just takes the damn cake!


See this mirror above? It's pretty, isn't it? It's a vintage item being sold on Snapdragon Antiques. So how much is the asking price? $50? $30? $10? No. It's being listed for the small price of $9.00, even though it's almost four decades old.

Now here comes that astronomical price I was telling you about....


Now here's the exact same mirror, excepting of course of "a few" notable dings and scratches. How much is this site selling this tarnished, worn, peeling, broken mirror for? $9? $20? $30??! No. They're asking $75 for this piece of weathered junk. Shabby Chic or not, I am not impressed.
