Gone Thrifting: buffet

I've been looking for a liquor cabinet/sideboard to put in my living room.A cabinet with an air of sophistication - one that Frank and the rest of the Rat Pack would be at home with.
Not too much has turned up on my local craigslist, so I decided to take a look on ebay. BTW, I'm in looking and thinking stage, not the affording stage.

This one is a beauty with a price of $140.00, but is a pick-up only in Lake Hiawatha, New Jersey. Too far for this Wisconsin girl.

What I really need is something more like this to house my glassware. We actually don't have very much liquor in our house. Teenage son, need I say more?

This cabinet is swank and sophisticated, but too short on storage for my needs. It's gorgeous, but also very expensive.

I could live with this, it's got a good mid century vibe going. Looks like it would store a lot of glassware too.

This lovely sideboard/buffet is a buy it now for $50.00, gak! But a pickup only in Weatherford, Texas. That's a long drive from Wisconsin. Well, it's not exactly what I need, but a steal nonetheless. (I'm so easily distracted.)

This is very nice. But I'm quickly realizing my champagne taste and beer budget mean that I'm going to have to save my pennies a~~while~~ lot longer.

Now this I like. Look at the legs on this piece. Lots of storage and presence galore. The price is fair, but a local pickup again, this time in St. Louis, Missouri.

I actually drove to St. Louis last spring to pick up a pair of steel barrister bookcases I won in a ebay auction. I did the round trip in a day, so exhausting. It was worth it - you can't find them around here and I got a great price as the University was selling them and not a dealer.
