A Classy Flea?

My mother has been begging me to go to this place with her.

http://www.aclassyflea.com/

I have a few issues:
1. They have an updated website.
2. It doesn't look "junky" enough to be worth it.
3. They have a facebook page. This is a sign that they are probably overpriced.

I just want to go to salvage stores where people know nothing about antiques...and no staging.

Ebay, woe is me.

I lost a fantastic 3 piece Santa Anita ware set...it's tragic. I wanted it so...

Rescue me!


Rescued from the neighbor's trash...I think I'll paint them high-gloss white and find some great cushions.
First, I must repair the wrapping on one of the arms.


Rescued/purchased from MFP. Going to a friend's collection. I just couldn't leave it there. I didn't have the heart.
Anyone want to buy these? Two identical vintage faux leopard print lamps.

I went back to MFP about a week later and they couldn't find the plates, but they took my number. Two hours later...I owned the plates.
The square platter is my first ebay experience with my new obsession.

The plates were a little hard to place in my house, so I hung them on the wall. I really like them on the wall.
