You have expensive taste, but bought a new house that didn't have granite in the bathrooms or crown moulding?  So I guess on your long list of failures in life, you might as well add trolling.[/quote]

It was a brand new house. The builder offered finishes that I was not thrilled with. I felt I could get nice stuff on my own.
Builder offered wood moulding, yuck. We wanted plaster crown moulding.
Builder had four choices of granite. I wanted more options.
Sorry if that make me a troll.[/quote]

If you have "expensive taste" your builder would have been good enough to provide these items.

Sorry your lame troll story isn't holding up.[/quote]

Why is everyone a troll? Just because I don't agree with you? Whatever.
I can't control the builder's finishes. I wanted a house backing on to greenspace with a massive lot. When we saw it, we jumped on it.
I'm glad we did. It's heavenly.[/quote]

We just finished building a house.  Anything the builder offered that we didn't like, we upgraded and paid extra for.  Your story doesn't hold true.  If it was truly new and you didn't lime the finishes, it would be far more expensive to pay to remove crap (countertops for example) and put higher end choices in.  [/quote]
