City Barn Antiques

Thousands and thousands of satisfied customers from 1970 – 2007 that told their friends about us. One or two unhappy ones that sounded off here. I can live with that. It was a great run. Thanks to everyone who supported our business.

Twats. These douches are just fucking unbearable. I wanted to purchase a pair of heywood wakefield night tables, SIGHT UNSEEN! Him and his bitch son were still in the restoration process. Fucking night tables from 1949! And the guy wouldn’t budge on the price. Fair enough, when you’ve got great products, then you might not have to. But he was so arrogant and smarmy about it that it left a bad taste in my mouth. «you kidding, i should charge you more for a pair! Where are you going to get a pair like this?» again… not even in the store! These fucking night tables are in a fucking warehouse somewhere being restored!
So I’m intent on scoring some of these sweet, sweet night tables, I scoured ebay for a while. Lots of crap. Then, a week ago, low and behold, the fuckers at city barn are selling a pair of the exact night tables that I wanted. Again, no harm, no foul here. Everybody’s got a right to sell shit on ebay. Even if he’s an asshole that rips people off. Now at this point in the review, you might be saying, what’s this prick Neil going on about, right?
Well, I won the ebay auction. For cheaper than the asking price in the store too! Yet I still had the feeling that the guy jacked it up a little, you know, by getting his buddy to bid on it or some shit. But cheaper than the asking price none the less. I get the invoice, mail out a check, then a day or 2 later, the fucker tries to charge me tax on it, rationalizing the charge by saying that I wasn’t paying for shipping.
I’m a reasonable guy [sometimes], but i feel like he’s trying to get as much cash as he can for his product. I mean, a deal is a deal. And an invoice is an invoice. There was no mention on his listing, or his invoice about taxes. And in subsequent email transactions he was condescending, arrogant, and an all out ballbag.
So in summary, I wanted some night tables, bought some night tables on ebay, had a bad experience with the tool that owns this place, write a bad review of it, and enjoy my purchase. Shut up, Neil.
