The 1 That Got Away

Over the weekend I was looking through to a greater extent than or less pictures stored on my desktop too came across this one:

It's from a Craig's List posting final spring.  I bookmarked the listing to "think most it", too of course of written report forgot to come upwards dorsum to it.  Several weeks subsequently I saw my bookmark too decided to banking corporation tally into it.  It was big...like 3x5 feet.  Yes, it was all the same for sale, made out of wood, said it was from Italy, too he would accept $75 rather than the $100 listed on the price.

The homo didn't alive inwards our surface area but had advertised it hither to larn to a greater extent than exposure.  His immature lady did alive hither too he said he would convey it the side past times side fourth dimension he visited her.  Weeks passed.  I contacted him too nicely asked if he was all the same planning to convey it.  He said yes, he merely hadn't made it to town yet.  Several to a greater extent than weeks passed, I attempted to contact him several to a greater extent than times, too I never heard from him again.  

I all the same wonder what happened.  Did he larn a amend offer?  Change his mind?  Discover he was crazy for selling a fabulous mirror similar that for $75?   I'll never know.  I all the same mean value perhaps I should cause got constitute out just how far away he was.  It powerfulness cause got been worth a route trip! 

I evidently haven't forgotten most it.  Maybe I should contact him too encounter if he all the same has it?  Is that stalking? 

What's your "One That Got Away" story?
