BFF of the Week

Apparently Long Island Eddie got hated on by his women when he bought these two chairs to sell at the Flea. But he got his retribution when they both sold within the first couple hours. I tracked down one of the buyers to see how she felt about the debated chair. Turns out, the buyer was such BFF material, I asked Rei to be our BFF this week!

Do you come to the Flea often?
This is my first time. To Brooklyn.

Wow. Where do you live?
Manhattan. West Harlem.

And what do you do?
I work in advertising. I'm an art director. [Ed. note: two points for Eddie and the chair.]

So if you've never been to the Flea, what brought you out? You think the chair was calling?
I saw it in an ad in my local Japanese paper. I had always been curious.

Why did you buy this chair? What are you going to do with it?
I fell in love with this chair as soon as I saw it. [Another point for Eddie.] I'm going to put it in my bedroom and read in it.

Did you get anything else?
And I bought a little dress from Aissatou. [She runs Tessan Boutique.]

Where are you going to wear your dress?
I haven't thought about that yet. Only about my chair.

Damn, you love that chair. Alright, I'm going to take your picture.
Alright, let me look like the queen I am.

Yes, ma'am. Nothing like a woman in her chair who knows she's queen. Thanks Rei!

how many women does long island Eddie have exactly?

Mr. B. Did you notice that the Fort Greene Flea is mentioned in "Vogue" magazine, Oct. issue? (page 141, bottom of page). As in "It Girl" Alexa Chung shops for accessories at ... and Fort Greene Flea.

Not sure I understand this BFF example, exactly. Long Island Eddie may possibly redeem himself if he buys his women some accessories at the Fort Greene Flea.

(well right there may be the problem unless they are his girlfriend and sister, etc).
