Seems to me that something like that needs a meme starting to get to the
ears of the people who:
a) have a big house
b) have loads of money
c) would love something like that.
Movie stars, pop stars, film studios, set dressers that sort of thing?
(Posh & Becks spring to mind, but probably not a good idea right now,
maybe not J-lo either....
maybe an ebay ad at a fantastically large reserve (like the "wife for
1million dollars" type thing?)
Or maybe you should take out a photo ad in http://www.countryliving.com/?
Or maybe a local newspaper would be interested in writing an article on
"how to sell a dining room set fit for a king?"
gotta get thinking outside the box on this one....
Got a blog? - write it up - tell everyone - word will spread someone with
the money and the need will surface for sure. even better if two people
want it - they can bid against each other.
