Let me paint a picture...yesterday I see a listing with a chrome Panama and a black Halogen Star and nearly crap my pants...I call and the guy says there are more fans in the house and that I can have them all for $150 (which is what the listing said)...So you know I jumped on it. Get the address, it's in The Dominion, which is the swankiest neighborhood in San Antonio...it's where George Strait lives FFS! I arrive today and the neighborhood is absolutely incredible, I mean INCREDIBLE! Pull up to the house, nobody's there. I call the guy and he says "The door is open, you can go on in and get started"...I'm like 0___0 So I give the house a walkthrough and find the most amazing assortment of Casablancas I have ever seen. I get started and by the time I finish the downstairs the guy shows up, says Hi, all this stuff...even tries to pawn some other light fixtures off on me LOL. He asks if I'd be okay if he left me alone there, as long as I locked the door behind me, and I said yes. 2 Hours later I have my haul Click image for larger version. I actually gave the guy $160 cuz my ATM only dispenses in 20s, so it came down to $20/fan There were also 2 Designer Gray Panamas in the living room, which I couldn't get because they were too high, a Hampton Bay in the kitchen, same deal...and a Hunter Mayfair in one of the bedrooms. The guy asked me to take down and leave a fan for them to use in a different house, in a sea of Casablancas the Hunter loses out

I should note that when I found that I was chatting with Christian Chandler, he can tell you I was speechless just from the chrome Panama, little did I know what else was in store for me!

Do what you need to do to get the grey Panamas! I have several big ladders, too bad I'm not close.
