Scavenger: Mid Century Modern Rosewood Desk for $2500
New York

This is an amazing-looking Mid Century Modern Rosewood Desk. Granted, the price does seem steep to us, but it's apparently in great condition and would likely last for years to come if properly cared for.

This is another one of those cases where something seems like the perfect item and instead of being well underpriced (like the kinds of things everyone else scores from craigslist and thrift stores), it is relatively astronomical to my budget. I can only love things too expensive to buy, apparently. I'm not destined to find anything worth my adoration that's also inadvertently priced to my advantage.

FYI, the link to the desk is incorrect. Here's the listing: http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/fud/870214896.html

Oh, and here's a cheaper MCM alternative ($300 instead of $2750): http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/fuo/867211002.html

The link was supposed to go to AT's Classifieds. I have changed it now. Thanks, JH4285 for finding it on Craigslist as well.

Is that the same desk from Oct. 2...? http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/scavenger/scavenger-midcentury-desk-for-120-new-york-065047

Actually, no. It appears that (due to some technical glitch) this Rosewood desk picture was transposed onto the Oct. 2nd post (a week after the fact). Not sure what happened there, but the Oct. 2 post was definitely a different desk and picture. I went back into our Classifieds and that $120 desk is gone (as we knew it would be, since it was such an incredible deal), so I can't change the picture back!

Thanks for the clarification -- wasn't sure if I was seeing things!
