Resin chunk swag lamps are easily accessible at Pasadena and Long Beach flea markets. I've seen them anywhere from $80 low end to $170 high end on average. I don't think I've ever recieved an answer on a chunk swag lamp over $200, but then again all of this goes back to what bigbro said. Also,auctions and flea market sellers can obviously ask any price they want to, it just depends if they are REALLY interested in selling it, or sitting on it, and the price usually reflects that.

I know personally, if I had to drag a bunch of "wares/merchandise" to a swap/flea market, and set it up, I'd hate like hell to have to pack it all back up and take it home just to unload it again :roll: . Although most sellers are not like this(thank god!), I've seen some vendors do this, and its almost like they have their own little "show and tell", and if someone is willing to pay for the high markup on the item, they will part with it. I guess it takes all kinds.
As with anything else in life, patience and persistence is virtue...I've learned this from ebay. If you don't get it this time, there will always be one down the line, and probably more in your price range........ :)
