What envy smells like...

Hello, friends,

If you ever wondered what envy smells like, scroll down and sniff deeply when you get to the picture...

Good, clear flow to you all,

Jeff

I love to find a lamp I have never seen before. I recently found one for sale and got it for a steal. Weeks later it got through customs and arrived here.

All the way from Australia. Box was a bit crunched and loose, but the important stuff was secure.

I opened it with glee. Those bitches on oozinggoo are going to be sooooooo jealous....

Oh my, look at how pretty that thing is! The detail is so sharp and beautiful!...

It is just so bold and pretty and the yellow is so loud...

Now I just have to plug this thing in and get it flowing so I can really make every one of my goohead friends wet with envy...

What the?!

NO!!!

FUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!!

Damn Australians with their silly left-handed, communist plugs!

Damn!

Well, at least someone is happy with this stupid plug. What a chew toy!

Off to Home Depot to finish the rest of the story.

Jeff

Tim,

I would love to share info but there is not a single stitch of lettering on it for any means of identification. I have taken the base apart because I have to change the cord and there isn't even anything on the inside. I have been watching sales and collecting for a good long time now and this is the only one I have ever seen like it.

Wish I had more to give you on this one.

Jeff

Claude,

What sort of collector would I be if I gave up the only one of these any of us have ever seen? It would have to be something really special to get me to flip.

I think a better idea would be to put it on loan like a museum.... I send you this one and you send me a fluidium or something special I have never enjoyed and a couple months later we send them back to their respective homes. That sounds cool to me. Many of the regular posters on here are trustworthy enough sounding that I would take a chance on a thing like that.
