Heck.... I use em as plates and platters. Every dish in my house came from the second hand store. Figure even the finest restaurants I've ever dined in fed me on used plates.
Thanks. These were, fortunately, in stock in my size. I have some Wesco engineer boots that I waited a year for. They're totally worth it, but I'd have been hard pressed to do that again.
