Office Chairs Barter

Trade Number Two is a success! Check out what I got for the bottle of mustard:



Do me a favor in ignoring the cluttered garage.



Thanks a million bajillion to Diane Koh for her generous barter of two office chairs! Despite the cheezy fabric, they are basically brand new! Dad figures they could sell together for $50 at a garage sale. But he's a salesman. Of course he's going to overprice things =)

You know you want them!!

Oh, and my economics teacher sat me down to have a little chat about the "rules." So I'll relay them to you:

1. Keep it "Pinewoodian." At Pinewood we like to think of ourselves as well-rounded, insightful and critically-thinking, self-motivated, clear-communicating, respectful individuals of character (seriously. how preppy is that?). So if your offer does not live up to our standards it is a NO GO!
2. The school and the parentals have complete VETO power.
3. If I get any strange offers (including but not limited to: virginity, body parts, and one's soul) I will REPORT YOU! To whom I have no idea yet...

And... ya. Thanks for humoring me with this silly project everybody!!!

  1. Jenni, I thought of something I could trade. . . it's Pinewoodian! It's a framed Degas print of two ballerinas. The frame is cherry wood I believe. The whole thing is about 2 feet by 2.5 feet. It's framed without glass--I think there may a protective coating on the print but I'm not sure. It's pretty! It would be great for a girl's room or anywhere, really. Let me know if you want me to bring it to class for a viewing.

  2. That's so sweet! Are you sure you're willing to do that? And do you want the office chairs or should I get rid of them? I know that the print would move along the trading process a lot better than the chairs are! But if you have any second thoughts, keep it. I guess we'll talk tomorrow morning.

    Thanks!
