Ebay Comes Through Again

When the Home Depot off St. Johns was going out of business, I fell prey to two of the worst impulse purchases of my home owning career. The first was a Kohler faucet that I ripped off the wall – severed hoses and all. Months of scrounging for parts and instruction manuals, only to find out that the faucet was too shallow for our 2″ counter tops. I was not a winner in that moment. Saved a little face by getting $30 for it off Craigslist months later.

Second impulse purchase was a perfectly functional, and good looking cabinet mount vent hood. Stainless steel, nice brand, perfect – However, I shouldn’t have purchased a vent hood a year in advance because I’m not great at sticking to plans, and we ended up changing everything when we took out that cabinetry. Precisely why I love going this alone. No one to blame but me and I can live with that. Here is it’s Craigslist mug shot.

Moving on… I put the old vent hood on Craigslist and got a pretty decent amount. It paid for half of the vent hood I bought the week after on ebay. A stunning chimney-style, stainless steel vent hood.

Long story about it being dented, almost sending it back and then randomly getting a 2nd one in the mail, but all-in-all it worked out beautifully. $319 With free shipping. In this moment, I was a small winner. More about not being a winner with my tile grout coming soon.
