Craigslist Finds...

Wow, this is a hell of a deal. Wish I had room for them...



Vintage Refrigerator and Stove - $200 (West Madison)
"I have a vintage Philco refrigerator and matching stove for sale. Both are in good exterior and working condition. Selling as a set for $200."

These are beautiful, but it's just as well you did not get them; old appliances are pretty, but they are really inefficient and use like 4 times as much energy as modern appliances. I always wish that someone would make modern appliances and just make them in a retro style.....then I found out that folks do (Elmira, etc.) but they CHARGE 4 times as much as for a regular appliance. Sigh.....

That is a GREAT price! I've been perusing craigslist and drooling over what I have no intentions of buying, as well. torture. :)

I'd go for these, no question. SO they may use more energy but lets be honest how many people use appliances of this age? You got to look at the big picture here. Plus you're recycling by reusing them instead of buying new... think of the energy/materials used in the making of the new efficient stuff.

Why can't we ever find anything like this, and reasonable, where we live ?!

Found your blog from retro renovations. Love it, and I'm now a follower.

This room is freakin' cool! I'm of second thought if it is very expensive or just right.
