My husband and I stopped by an estate sale today (mini-rant). [View all]
One of the things I bought was this:
When I asked the prices for this and 2 other items (most everything was unmarked), the guy in charge looked at this one and said, "I feel like giving you this, just to get rid of her."
He walked away so fast that I didn't have time to fully process the comment. Once it sank in, I was pissed! I told my husband that it made me feel like not spending my money there, except I'd be cutting off my nose to spite my face by passing on items I wanted. So I bought them anyway, and I'm not sorry I did.
It was just a little thing, but grrrrr! It actually felt like a microaggression of sorts. If I imply that something you have or want to own is basically trash, am I not implying something about you? I think so!
Like I said, just a little thing, but it annoyed me enough that I felt like venting. But at least I got a cool action figure out of it. She'll be good company for my RBG action figure.
