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?
Break up the set? Sacrilege!

You must get the whole thing or none at all...

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!
