: A major distributor with a massive inventory of exclusive parts.
When a cleaning mishap shattered a panel on a century-old Tiffany lamp, the owners feared it was lost forever. They used the internet to find a specialist who could create a custom replacement panel. By shipping a single intact panel to serve as a pattern, they were able to have a new part fabricated and mailed back, restoring a piece of family history.
One DIY enthusiast fell in love with a brass urn-shaped lamp retailing for $1,000. Instead of paying the designer price, she scoured Facebook Marketplace and found a similar vintage pair for just $80. After some "University of YouTube" training, her husband rewired them using online kits, successfully achieving a $2,000 look for a fraction of the cost.
