Now we want to know what it was LOLO. P. & Co No 6 Cast Iron Bean Pot ... circa 1865-1870 ... footed with bale handle. For some reason, at the time, THAT size was selling as high as $ 280 - $ 340 max on eBay ... mine went ballistic and a collector purchased it ...
During one of my major moves I had to leave at least 5k behind once the semi was stuffed and cars stuffed and furniture tied to the roof of the cars.
I left behind one of those bean pots with a live fica tree growing in it in the living room. I don't regret it though 🙂
... hmmm, where'd you leave it? (hee hee hee)

It's been...15 years, do you think they'll give it back if I bang on the door?
Lots of "house warming" presents for those buyers!
Its worth a try ... and if they have one of those nice brass eagle door knockers ... well, you know (hee hee). JUST KIDDING! The funniest sale(s) I had this year was when we replaced our Microwave ... locally you can NOT put appliances out for the trash pick up ... OH NO! You have to take them to the recycle place and PAY to have them recycled! ERRRNT!
I took the old unit apart (completely) and sold 1/2 dozen components on eBay for a nice little "discount" off the new unit! Little motors, door switches, the door, the glass turn table, etc. What was left was simply a pile of metal and plastic parts ... NOT an appliance, so in the trash they went! I'm a lot smarter than I look! (LOL!)

Giant claw foot tub, The Murphy bed swung out of the closet into the living room.
The kitchen was the size of a postage stamp, it had a door where the ice man could leave ice.
It was full of old people, fire alarms would go off, and I would knock on the door.
"not to worry dear, I just burnt my toast" well lets open a window, and clear out the smoke.
Then one day in the basement laundry room a couple of the old ladies said.
Have you met the little girl in number 13 ? The rest is history.
Me and Mrs. monkey have a thing for old buildings.
Aww,

Thanks - the bathtub was free(from my parents house and the one I used until I left for the military), the sink with the faucet was 50 bucks, and the barbers backbar was 90 bucks.
Yes, I hit a good auction that day.
