I hadn't been to Volunteer's of America in a couple of days so I figured I'd find something. Walking down the plate aisle I noticed a lady looking at this piece. I though oh darn looks like I missed a nice piece of Imari ...then she put it back on the shelf ! I went around the aisle and came up behind her and quietly picked it up and ran. Once I was on the other side of the store I checked it out. Nice shell shape and colors and only a small nick at the bottom edge. Now where's the price ?? I didn't see it. Store policy says it has to go back to production if it's not priced. That's probably why she put it back... darn it ! Then I found it. A small 90 written in orange crayon. I missed it at first so I bet she didn't see it either. Score !.... a 90 cent Imari plate ! -Mike-
See.....The Great Finder strikes and scores another beauty.
Had to smile at the grab and run then look. Been there!
