After everyone's talk about vintage RV/patio lights I was hoping to score some of my own...so I did Not moai lights...but they are the vintage indoor/outdoor blown plastic ones that I wanted...and I got them for dirt cheap to boot!

I saw this huge sailfish last week and that said $200 or offer on it and today I got a call accepting my $75 bid. It barely fit in a Toyota Camery with the head hanging out the of passenger seat.

Great steal for $75!
My Uncle is a vet and also does taxidermy. He has a huge house full of every animal known to man stuffed (or at least it seems that way!) including 2 of these.
I asked him if I could have it and he was all set to give it to me until I said I was going to paint it all aqua or pink.
He then renigged the offer
I should of kept my mouth shut!
Great score!
