A nice story from a guy who deals in vintage furniture at the Rose Bowl Flea Market. (The dealer) had two high end Knoll lounge chairs for sale when Brad saw them. It seems he tried to purchase a pair of chairs just like them for $20,000 at auction and lost.

Momentarily, Brad is off my excrement list...

I’ll say one thing...at least he can take care of his baby collection.

Not mine.
Let him spend that money helping out people who are behind in their mortgages, you know, the ones he thinks you and I should bail out.

Smart move on Pitts part. Rather than have it come out later that, even though he paid what the guy was asking, he knew the chairs real values and was straight with the guy.
Win-Win all around.

Maybe Brad meant 12 hundred as a counter-offer to 15 hundred - not 12 thousand.
