I bought the wrong color...This gallon has never been used, but since it is a custom mix, I cannot return it. It is Benjamin Moore interior - a shade of lavendar- Eggshell finish (perfect for walls). Bought it for $28...will sell at 1/2 that price...

Hmmmm, I'm actually sort of interested! Now that the little woman is here, there is much painting to be done, and lavender might be just perfect for the bathroom.

Let me know...It wasn't right for the room we chose it for. High quality stuff... top shelf! You can always add white to lighten, just to give a 'tint' of color to the walls...

Would you be willing to include a nice # 2 Pencil?

I'll ask my squaw. It should go something like this, but in Japanese:
"Honorable Wife (yes, I really address her this way), the bathroom needs painting and I can get my hands on a gallon of high quality lavendar paint for an excellent price."
"And who will do the painting?" she'll ask.
"Your Honorable Husband will do the painting of course." She never calls me Honorable Husband, even though she's supposed to.
To which she'll respond as she does when I get a flat tire and need to change the tube, "John (it's rude to address someone as 'you' in Japanese) should call a professional to do it. It's dangerous!" And yet, somehow I got this conservative Japanese girl to not only marry an American grizzly bear, but move to one of the most reputably dangerous cities on Earth.
"This is America. We don't hire a professional unless it's something that requires heavy equiptment, or it's explosive or something. What do you think could happen?
At which point she'll be stuck for an answer (and there will be a few more "really?" s in there) and I'll win if I manage not to let her know that the paint is not coming straight from the store.

I am happy to announce that the gallon of paint is "off the market". For paint similar to what I was offering, please see your local Benjamin Moore dealer. For anyone interested, though, I can get you a few gallons of mint green wall paint...cheap.
