<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 1298389, member: 10944"]Thanks dude! The hammered set is neat, especially under spot. I’m dying to know who made it but so far haven’t found a match for the mark.</p><p><br /></p><p>I actually just got done with a very frustrating transaction lol. I had paid a lady for a sterling cordial set that I was to pick up at a later date. I think I would have come out at about 60% or more below spot. She decided she didn’t want someone coming to her home after advertising home pickup and agreeing that I would pick them up there. That was fine but I couldn’t meet her at the other time and place she dictated and she was super rude and hard to deal with. I would have to spend 3-4 hours in rush hour traffic if I chose the other options she presented after that. I even asked if she could just put them out on the porch or in the mailbox for me. Without traffic it would be 1.5hr round trip. I ended up asking her to just ship them to me. She agreed to but at a higher price than it would cost to ship. I even offered to pay more than cost where she would have cleared a bit. Over a few lousy dollars I just settled for a refund on principal though. I couldn’t stand her or her getting her way even for what still would have been a good deal. I probably should have just sucked it up but she got under my skin in a bad way. Very sad silver news today. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
