Help talk me out of it...
I've been eyeballing this set for days. It's a Japanese made vintage gold moriage pearl luster teaset. I don't need anymore teaware but I may have to buy one cup & saucer just to own a piece of it!

It would be a travesty to stop at one cup and saucer, don't even think of that. Get the whole set.henley wrote:I've been eyeballing this set for days.

Imagine how much tea you can buy for the same price!henley wrote:I've been eyeballing this set for days. It's a vintage gold moriage pearl luster Japanese teaset. I don't need anymore teaware but I may have to buy one cup & saucer just to own a piece of it!
The noise comes from the other side of the mirror

I can see how it's a difficult set to turn down D: I'm not necessarily into Western tea stuff, but still. Nice set.

That's one reason it's not already at my house!

Well, it is definitively not the kind of teaware I like, but if you really really really like it and don't have to sell one of your kidneys for it, I am afraid there is no way to talk you out of it I guess.henley wrote:I've been eyeballing this set for days.

A possibility is to calculate how many hours you have to work to buy it.
Just by curiosity, how much is it?

I thought of that as I was typing the original message. Almost titled the post "From one junkie to another..."chamekke wrote:You do realize that we're a community of co-enablers here...
There's a 3rd cup & saucer available. I'll send it to you since you like it so much!Space Samurai wrote:I think its kind of hideous, myself. (shrugs)
Does that help?
I'm in price negotiations w/the seller. My bday is next month so this may be my present. Thanx for the input, everybody!
