So apparently, the original listing was mismarked $100 but is now actually $400... sooooooo yeahhh. Still a nice flat file, I guess.

Awww dang, I'm sorry... I guess it was too good to be true :(

They should honor the $100 price for their messup :wink:

No worries.. I don't really have the room for the whole thing anyhow, plus it would have been a hassle to arrange pick up since I doubt it would have fit in my truck.

That happend with mine. They listed it at $50.00, which I hopped on it immediately. Not as big as the one above, but a very nice 5 drawer. No rust just mino wear and tear. I went to pick it up and she said she meant to mark it at $500.00. They honored the $50.00 reluctantly. I walked away with a friggin steal.
