Recent Rare Pieces Spied Online Redux

Two years ago in September 2021, I took a survey of rare pieces that had recently sold on eBay. At the time, the collecting world felt the sale prices seemed a tad high. Boy, we hadn't seen anything yet!

Back in July 2020, a Merry Mushrooms Ice Cooler/Stool sold on eBay for the Buy It Now price of $150.00. On August 26, 2023, a second stool sold for an astonishing $1,001.25. Based on the rust/damage along the bottom, this appears to be a different one. So, we know there's at least two in existence. This *may* be the highest price yet paid for a single Merry Mushrooms piece.
