It happened again. 2 people wanting the same thing at the same exact time. If the one who missed out had pulled the tag, she would have got it. As shoppers, we tend to look at something, then wander around looking at other things before we go back to get what we came in for. But with our one of a kind pieces being promoted on our Facebook page, chances are good that more than one person will be coming in for the same thing... at the same time.
So, if you are sure you want something, pull the tag and bring it to either me or George at the counter, and it will be yours to buy.
What was the piece that both wanted so badly this time?
This:
This old primitive cupboard. So prim, so sturdy, so cool.
We set several things outside before we open, and the lesson applies there too. If you are one of the folks who come early and stand in line waiting on us to open, and you see something you want outside, pull the tag.
See that plow leaning against the corner on the right? The customer who wanted it was waiting in line to get in, but didn't pull the tag. She told me as soon as she came in that she wanted it, and I told her to hurry and pull the tag. She was just lucky that no one else pulled it ahead of her, or she would have missed out, even as she stood there in line.
This is the only downside to the unique pieces we work hard to find. Only one person can buy them!
Some of our other cool pieces this month...
A metal dental cabinet. It sold as soon as we opened.
Barn gates, straight out of a sheep barn in Ohio. The corn sheller was from the same barn. The sheller and some of the gates are still available today.
The blanket box is still available. Love it's dovetailed corners!
Some of the ladders have sold, but we are actually bringing more in today.
Still have the iron wheels. This set is in great shape. We have more that are in a bit more used condition.
These chairs are screwed together, making a bench.
The large whiskey barrel with the green bands sold yesterday, but the shorter one is still available today. It still has it's wooden spigot.
We have lots more... old windows, lots of enamelware, signs, wooden boxes, old chairs, kitchenware, goats milk soap, WV decor, the list goes on and on.
Open today (Friday, October 13) from 10-5. Our next open weekend will be November 23 & 24, which is Black Friday and Small Business Saturday. After that, we will be open each Friday and Saturday until Christmas.
Hope you can come! 318 Jefferson Avenue in Moundsville, WV.
