Swanky Retro Swag for sale

is what the craigslist posting says and it is the swankiest swag I have ever owned but it's time for us to part. This lamp hung over the swanky stereo console in my apartment. That stereo was a hand me down of sad sorts and carried with it more baggage than I cared for and I could never bring myself to work on it so I sold it. I am selling the lamp because it doesn't fit my current decor. It's more 60's and 70's sunken den and my place is tres Be-Bop era.
As soon as I posted the ad, the emails began. People were promising me the moon so long as I held onto this lamp for one week until they could come by, others were moved to just comment and expressed their love and desire for one though not at this time, others wrote in to question it's origins and history-don't know, just a lil something off Ebay. I'm left puzzled as to why it never once got a single compliment all the years I had it. I still think it's tres cool but not willing to hold on to things anymore just because I think they are tres cool. Everything I acquired prior to 01/2004 has been under evaluation and may have an expiration date. I am enjoying letting go of all these things I collected. They served their purpose and now it's time to move them on their way so that they can be a part of someone else's past. To think of all the pasts these things have had.
