Seriously - I actually really love the look of the sofa in pic #13. If the person of the sofa wants to get rid of it - just let me know. I live in the Rogue Valley, Oregon, USA. I would even pay the shipping cost to get it to me. Trust me ... the sofa you hate - I love and it would have a happy home with me. I already have some cream colored silk dragonfly flow pillows from Japan that would go great with it. Thanks, Roxs :) Post your comment here, if you would me to be the new owner ... I'll keep my fingers crossed. :)
