Minor gloat!

Dee and I had to go into OKC today for some business and in the neighborhood we were in there was an Estate Sale and no woman I know will pass up on one so we had to stop. Dee picked up a few things and I spotted a brass and crystal ink well. The price on it was $85, I left it but came back to it a few times. When we were checking out I asked the Estate sales manager the things are still left tomorrow how much are they going to cut prices, he said 50% and what are you looking at sir? I told him an ink well in the office, he looked at Dees list that we were getting never asked me the price and said you can have it today if you add it to this ticked for $6, I couldn't say yes fast enough. Bought it and picked it up.On the way home Dee said "do you think he thought it was the ink bottle that was there? I felt bad and called them, left a message on the voice mail and just got a call back and he said for being honest keep it. I now show you my $6 ink well

Great fine Roy. That still would have been a steal at $85.00.
