I'm negotiating with the old man as we need a new 3ton heat pump thing. I have electric. He has a complete package, an old unit from a local church, not used much - it's gas. For $350 for all of it plus his install will run me about 1000. I think I'm in. We don't use it much either, and gas for us will be cheaper to run when we do need it. We also decided to flea market after that and hit the local Abilities Unlimited and I saw an MCM dinette - upon closer inspection, it's a 1965 Heywood Wakefield. 6 chairs, table with 3 leaves. Table top needs redone, one chair needs a repair. It lists for $5k on Charish.com, which I know is overpriced but heck, I paid $70 for ALL of it. I have a big double pedestal chunky set (6ft expands to 8, 6 chairs) I think I'll sell and use this more streamlined set. Same amount of seats and don't take up near as much room. Bless Arron and my shenanigans. We took chairs home, then all the way back for table top, then another 40 mins to the next town so he could eat Italian and then shopped more and came home. I don't know how to refinish a table top but I reckon I'm bout to learn.
