I went on Friday.. actually live close by and had the day off! They wanted $450 for the lamp. The two Tikis were actually the posts from the Witco Tiki Bar (sans bar) and she wanted around $400 for those. The chairs were $500 I believe. The table lamp was between $400 and $500. The table/stool thing was I think $500. I was told "everything is negotiable" so I asked if she had a better a price on the chandelier. Well, she just about bit my head off and basically told me to go f-myself. Uhhh... okay. the lady running the sale was so rude and nasty that I decided to just leave. It really was insane - and I wasn't the only one. A few people outside talked about how nasty she was. I even looked her up on the internet and sure enough, here's some similar reviews of her on Yelp:

Anyhow, someone did eventually buy it and for near asking I would presume. I guess $450 is a fair price for the Witco chandelier lamp but not exactly a steal either. Glad I did not give a dime to this nasty person.

Hehehe, yep Tatoo my wife and I witnessed others having runs in with that lady. At best she was not budging on price (and NOTHING there was a bargain), at worst she would just grab the item they were interested in and tell them "no I'm not selling this now, I changed my mind."
