Terms and definitions

Don't you just love some of the terms used on ebay to describe some items. Like "Costume" Jewellery. How about just using the real term "CHEAP" or better yet the term "Deceased Estate", as to imply it must be old. Never mind the person may have only bought it brand new a few days before they departed us.


Another good one is "Mid Century". How about just saying its second hand. And just when is/was the EAMES era?


 


And don't forget the good old stand-by, "Antique Style". Don't even get me started on "Reproduction"...
