The "How much?" or "You're havin' a giraffe!" thread

[Jameshow]

The kitchen units we're replacing are (slightly) better than those. Hmmm ... ....

Seriously are they in good nick?

 

[DCLane]

@Jameshow - no. They're almost 30 years old, although you could use 2-3 of the small corner ones that have hardly seen use / we added 15 years ago. Possibly usable for a garage - look like this, with a bottom trim that's been removed for the plastering last week.

 

[Jameshow]

No worries.

You dont come across as the 5 years I'm bored of this kitchen type!

My kitchen is on a par with the one above!

Report the nodder to whichever platform carried the ad.

I did - can;t remember where it was now - but I doubt it made any difference anyway
still - I try to report people like that if I can
on some platforms one complaint is ignored but logged
and if they start clocking up then they start to look at it

anyway - money paid a fair bit of the cost of my new ebike!

As opposed to this bike which seems a bargain at just £40.

A Paris Tour de France, a bargain at that price.

There should be a rule against posting items "in this place" which so clearly invite comments that belong in "the other place"

I mean

no - I won;t

Hover Fly, you will have to excuse my ignorance regarding this particular bike frame. Is it something special then ?

I’ve just had another look at the ad on FB Marketplace and the item Is now marked “Out of stock” so I suppose someone must have bought it.

Very highly regarded in their time, rival to Hetchins etc,

That is about half the price it was when new (in 2007). Which doesn't seem utterly bonkers TBH.

The price should be about £35... Not £100+
Fur that you should get an fz72 etc.

Not so much the price, but scroll down and read why it’s for sale

In B&M yesterday, the man in front of me bought four tins of lager and a packet of hand rolling tobacco. He was asked for over £53 !!

Found some con artist trying to pass off a 1990s pashley as being from wwii by sticking an old back wheel on it.
I particularly like the creative reinterpretation of the boggo standard Sturmey Archer patent number listing as proof that it's "swiss made".
