Old made new again


I was looking on the Urban Outfitters website when I saw this green Daisy Ashtray and I knew I had just seen one. And lo and behold I had a yellow version saved in my Etsy favorites from Etsy seller Junk Trunk. The new one is $12.00 and the vintage one is $5.50. Which one would you buy?

Vintage! Partially because I try to avoid Urban {that Republican that owns the place is a jerk!} and partially because I like the yellow better.

I would always go for the vintage!
I have a tray with the same motif (green, blue and white).
Side note: have you noticed the awesome ashtrays they have on Mad Men? Ah... if only smoking was somehow healthy...

Vintage all the way

definitely the vintage one! But then again I love vintage everything. Plus I can't help but feel bothered by Urban making copies like that.

Yeah I agree, it's bothering me too. I'm not sure why though.
