    Sounds like the earlybird may be a worm. I would have offered him more. I truly hope it went to a quilter and not some scalper.

    Wow. If that was for real and not a scam someone got a fabulous buy. And the man is probably thrilled to get a bedroom back;>

    Actually it was for real, I could hardly believe it, but we went there, met him but missed out...too late.
