Remember those $10 Taylor Smith Taylor place settings for 8, the $40 Brasilia bedroom sets, and the $3 Quartite table lamps? Those were the days.
I'm not sure when I noticed that things had gone south. Maybe it was the $2.00 per piece place settings, the $200 no-name laminate-topped writing desk with missing veneer and crayon scribbles, or the pieces with Goodwill price tags that were higher than the (still attached) retail stickers.
I told you about what happened with my ex, estate sales. You knew how I felt about that breakup. Now you've gone and broken my heart too.
I'd say it was me, not you, but your addiction to price increases has driven us apart. Maybe, with time, we can find each other again, but I'm through putting in all of the work for nothing in return.
