    :yes:

    They were a young couple, first stove in a new house. I actually tried to talk them out of it being that they never burned before but he seems like he's into it.

    Like I said earlier, some clean-up, paint, and some polish was the key to a sale. Pay no attention to those who think every stove has to have nickel trim. :picard:
    I think the stove looks fabulous! You done good, pellet monkey!

    They went and looked at several Hormoans and said mine was hands down the nicest and cleanest stove they looked at. I actually tried to talk them into looking at more Hormoans but they liked mine.

    I was eyeing a couple cheap(er) Hormoans on CL to flip but don't think I want to mess with those.

    Christ!! Were you purposely trying to scare them away so you could keep it for yourself :D...worst sales tactic ever, yet they still bought it! Must have looked really nice
