Surprise, Excitement, & Letdown

We found this sweet little jam pot at the Salvation Army today.

With these ugly plastic bowls taped to the top. Apparently this is their way of selling things that would otherwise be not likely to sell, with something that would. Maybe...Sometimes I just don't get why they tape things together.


Anyway, I turned it over and to my SURPRISE it was marked Arabia. Yes! Score!

A quick check of ebay shows that they sell for $45.00-$55.00. Excited!

So I get the sweet jar home and rip the tape off during the pictures to reveal this cutie:


Awwww....

I take the lid off and BAM. Chip. BAM. There's a crack. UGGGHHHHHH..... They were there all along. Disguised under the taped plastic bowls.

Maybe somebody will want it for $9.99.....
