Pickings Are Seemingly Slim Just About Everywhere This Time Of Year. I Think I Found Some Bargains In Portland OR Though. Wanna Take A Look? Sure Ya Do! Status: Not My Turf!

I haven't been finding too much on the StL. craigslist lately and a quick look through a number of other cities has left me wanting.  Thankfully, Portland Oregon came through with plenty of lovely bargains to show ya!

I Know...I Already "Did" Philadelphia PA. But They Just Got So Much Good Cheap Style There! Wanna Check Some More Out? Sure Ya Do. Status: Not My Turf.

I felt bad only putting up five items last time, so this time I dropped in an extra. Philly really has some good stuff. I bet a lot of get overlooked by the hunters like me too!

People Keep Trying To Clean Out My Booth! I Have To Keep Going Back With More! Status: Restock!

I got a text from the fine folks at the Green Shag Market yesterday that the pair of Glass and Chrome Side / End Tables had found new digs.  Crap...I had lots of stuff displayed on those!  I really liked them in the booth too!  They were perfect for displaying there since they were glass and light passed through.  Oh well, I had to get something else in there.

Another Epic Super Score! Seems Like It's Happening More And More Often! Vintage Verner Panton From Rural Illinois. Status: Rare Morning Pickup.

Another stupid amazing craigslist find. This time it wasn't StL. craigslist but Springfield Il. criagslist. Yet, it wasn't in Springfield but Jacksonville Il. At least Jacksonville is about 25 miles closer and although there isn't a major highway that leads there the two lane blacktop that does is nice and straight...due north!

Another Compilation Of Chair Posts. It's Stupid How Many Chairs I've "Gone Through"! Status: The Next Ten

Awe...those of you who are new to Mr. Modtomic's blog may not recognize Kennedy.  He was our kitty for many years (more so in the Girlfriends case as he was around before I was) and we had to let him go to the big catnip field in the sky last year.  It's still a little heart wrenching to see pictures of him unexpectedly.  He was the best cat ever.  But even so, the Girlfriend is chompin' at the bit lately to get another.  So that this chair is up next, with Kennedy posing rather proudly, is kind of a coincidence!

Nuthin' Beats Free But Finding A Tulip Table For Cheap Ain't Too Shabby. Status: Needs A Little Freshening Up.

More cheap cool tables! Nice. I found this beauty on C-list the same night I found the tossed Kroehler down the street. I picked it up on my way into work yesterday. It was at a business downtown that was liquidating it's assets.

A Few Weeks Ago a Tornado Ripped Through South St. Louis County, Saturday a Cyclone Made It's Way to North St. Louis County! Status: Available.

I briefly considered adding some food to this vignette, then I was like: yeah right...on my Starburst? Not.

How NOT to Inquire about a Craigslist Ad. Status: Denied

Today I received an inquiry about the Vitra Verner Panton "S" chairs that I have available on my Craigslist ads. I found these chairs a few weeks ago on Craigslist somewhat under priced. I usually wait a little longer than a month to re-list an item. What follows is why.

Moving stuff around in the Garage yesterday..."Found" this! Status: Top Broke Into A Thousand Little Pieces & Base / Chairs Are Gone.

Now isn't this just a match made in heaven? Don't they all look like they were just meant for one another? Can you believe I forgot I had this table stuck in the Garage?

You Gotta Get Up Pretty Early In the Morning to Out "Snake" This Guy! Verner Panton Chairs by Vitra. Status Update: Gone
