What a deal, seems almost too good to be true.--

Obviously, this is the beausage much beloved by RIvendellian types... I'm sure Grant would approve.

The copywriting is hillarious.

Apparently I have $1500 worth of Readers at home. Add the giant stack of catalogues, and I'm in the running for the 48 Hunga frame. Buy my stuff!

I think ebay has a free listing promo going on now. It's as good a time as any to skewer Riv-fetishism. Maybe they'll even sell a few.

My wife knows I buy Devold wool undies from Rivendell for $40 a pair. It's not totally illogical that she or another loved one of mine would come up with the syllogism:
Bill seems to buy everything Rivendell sells
Bill seems to prefer his Rivendell stuff (like $40 undies) even when there are cheaper options (like $4 undies)
Rivendell stuff seems overpriced to me
Here's a Rivendell item on ebay that Bill can't get from Rivendell
This Rivendell item on ebay seems overpriced
Therefore, I'll buy this overpriced Rivendell item on ebay and Bill will love it!
Thank goodness my wife is much smarter than that.
