Uhh, Seriously?

I look at Craigs List almost daily to see if I can find a good deal on a piece of furniture or something for the house and sometimes I am just dumbfounded by the prices people set for their items. For example, take a look at this lovely plaid chair that is in "excellent condition":

What would you think someone could get for this chair? I would say around $50. The seller has some much higher hopes however and is asking for $200, cash only. WTF? You can get a brand new chair that is not plaid OR pastel for less than that. I highly doubt they paid 200 for it when they bought it. And they are selling two of them, together ONLY. The stupid, it hurts.

    So 400 for both or 200 for both?

    Is the fabric woven from the curls of hair from baby angels?
