I gave it a thumbs-up then went to look at the Nick table:

Nick Dining Table
SKU# NK1-DNGTBL
$1,299.00

$1300 table for community potlucks? Sell the table and put the $$ in a 
bank account for future use: help urban farmers, buy food, other vital 
community needs...

seems so inconsistent to ask for such an expensive table for this kind 
of cause and community project/event which is usually (since as far back 
as I can remember) a very budget-minded kind of thing..
