May 14: Awesome Cup on Craigslist -- UPDATED (again)
This made me laugh:
"Note- glass half full." Ha!
It reminds me of the guy several years ago who was selling a nickel (possibly a quarter) on ebay. I think I won it for $1.25. As a bonus he included a drawing of a monkey.
Update, just minutes later: The awesome cup has already been removed from craigslist. I'm not sure why, though. It didn't break any of the rules. Sometimes beauty can be so fleeting.
Update, the next morning: I posted on CL that I wanted the cup. My post was removed (again, not sure why as no rules were broken), but I got this email from the cup owner:Sadly, due to overwhelming demand the red cup has been spoken for and a select few individuals are in a heated bidding war. If you are still in the market for something awesome I will be cataloging my collection within the next few weeks and everything must go. I have decided to move on to collecting more “Rad” items, as I see a future in such antiques that Awesome could never offer despite my overwhelming love for the genre.
Too funny.
