Worked for me. The old screwmounts aren't that expensive. Call Tamarkin in NYC for what they have post-auction in III's.

More seriously, learn something to surprise Kim when she gets back. Or go shopping for something not that expensive but something you think she'd like.

My dad used to buy us little presents when he went to NYC on business. It's the reverse principle here -- and you can bore shop clerks in antique and used stores about her.
