So, if he is wrong and you are right I can expect to get that same material
and prices at every HH ReStore? I'm going this morning to get two of the
cast iron sinks.


I am sure you are not that stupid, not every store sells the same items. If you
live in the SF Bay Areas, you might wanna go to the store in Oakland at San
Leando and buy the same vanity sink marked up price is $65 and I bargain to $25.
Beside, they have boxes and shelves of woodworking hardware's, hinges, knobs.
cocking, electrical switches, etc.... and they are new! In a Midwest store, they
thousand of new various water hammer arrester for $1. This store has stacks of
new floor tiles, cabinets' doors, vanity tops and used kitchen sinks blah, blah,
blah...

Habitats' stores are not for the lazy rich homeowner. It's for DIY, who wanna
buy items (new or used) found in Home Centers at a fraction of the price. It's
for people who believe in recycling someone new trash.
