The style and tone of the poster's writing seems 'foreign'? Kinda like those disjointed spam requests to help transfer family $$$ from some foreign country to avoid the Dictator's greed. I think the participants were OVERLY kind and patient in dealing with the poster.

I agree kitykat. maybe he/she was gonna try to convince someone that she had the only matching cabinet in the world - 1 of the only 2 ever made... and it was worth a fortune... and she'd make them a good deal on it since her dh is forcing her to get rid of it... her gma left it to her and she hates it - whatever...
