The mirror on my tenant’s is cracked, and I’m seeking a replacement.  
I find [this one.](http://www.bellacor.com/productdetail/33218.htm) I can’t help but wonder who would buy it.

Oh, they don’t include the mounting screws.

We have a [ROYAL SX 04601 Mirror cabinet](http://www.keuco.de) on display in our [show room](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rK5xrO6arZ0). I’ve sold tons of them at $1300 a piece.
