When I heard about John Thain’s furniture on Craiglist, I could not believe it. For those who don’t know who is, Thain held management positions at: the New York Stock Exchange (CEO), Goldman Sachs (President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer), and Merryl Lynch (CEO). In another words, he’s super well known. I wonder why he didn’t list on Ebay. I’m guessing it’s because of the ridiculous fees Ebay now charges in addition to the hassles involved.
Some of the items he has for sale include:
- George IV Desk, rarely used $18 K
- Chandelier, still sparkles despite the current economic environment $37 K
- Mirror with silver frame, has a few kiss marks we are trying to get off $5 K
- Mahogany pedestal table, might have been stood upon but still in great shape $25 K
