More OKL Insanity

When you’re out shagging golf balls, you usually use a basket like this one.OKLBut I am pretty sure you wouldn’t have paid this much money for it!

    OKL is one of my favs, but come on! I'm always shaking my head at 1st dibs, too. Crazy prices on everyday things. Glad I'm not the only one. ; )

    Old wire egg baskets are common as dirt and only slightly more expensive. One Kings Lane is one crazy place to shop!

    The real story is who is OKL, where do they find these items, how to they price the merchandise. If iron vs lunch room mystery meat metal .. er metal now a days looks like metal but the tinsel strength (next to nuthin') I would go with iron any day. What is made from iron these days decorative that is who is casting iron bells these days for that matter. oh speaking of bells listen to David Sedaris and his essay Jesus Shaves available on you tube via this American Life for an enjoyable treat.

    Hi Meg, I saw that one, too. I cannot imagine what people are thinking.....$265 to UNICEF or Doctors Without Borders, the Red Cross is a great idea, but a rusty iron basket? Pleassssssssssssssssse. Thanks. Mary

    Who curates these sales? If your frequent OKL insanity posts haven't gotten back to the source, who can?

    The shame of it all!

    I'm still trying to figure out how anyone could shag a golf ball. Takes all kinds, I guess... 8-)

    The exorbitant pricing on OKL is obscene, in my opinion. I love looking at the variety of things available, and have no issue with someone making a profit. But this much profit is ridiculous and stupid.
    Sorry for my harsh words, but when I see folks every day that are in danger of losing their homes and jobs, this sort of waste just makes me mad.

    Hello Meg,

    Every time I see things like this on one kings lane I seriously cannot figure out who is buying this stuff.

    Just wanted to let you know I linked to you today and gave mention to you about a style quiz that you had on your blog some time back.

    Have a great night.

    P.s when can we have an update on Connor? Have not seen him lately
