A couple of years ago MoModerne gave my girlfriend one exactly like that because it was broken. I was able to fix it enough so its sit-able. I don't know why we need it but you gotta admit that its fun to find a match to a 60 year old piece of furniture you already have. hahaNickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16131788345117405918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-75940247515182803622012-02-07T18:30:35.702-06:002012-02-07T18:30:35.702-06:00You could catch the Megabus down here and rent a u...You could catch the Megabus down here and rent a u-haul van to drive around here & back .

No biggie, I just didn't want you driving a U-haul all the way to Utah to find a distinct lack of Green Shag goodness.<br /><br />I'm sure I'd sell at an "antique" mall, but I kinda like meeting the people who buy this stuff from me! Plus there's all that paperwork to contend with and I'd be paranoid about shoplifters and the like.
