Can I interest you in a Chanel side table or a Versace Dining table and chair covers. These may not be genuine, but are a heck of a lot cheaper

Didn't you get a whole container of that stuff land up at Felixtowe docks?

That and other counterfeit stuff all the time - some of which made the genuine LV table tennis bat set linked to earlier seem quite subtle. It was my colleagues down in Tilbury or Gateway who had a container load of tables & chairs in the full LV colours & logos!

 

[FrankCrank]

Those LV prices are silly, especially when you can get that stuff at the local market here for a fraction of the price

I like the playing card motif. But not enough to buy it.

The only Christopher Guest movie i don't have is Mascots, yesterday i had a search on ebay for the DVD, expecting to find a listing for a couple of quid... nope; the cheapest of the three copies listed is £165 plus about £15 P&P

£118 for 2 cups of coffee and 2 pieces of cake at Grange-over-Sands yesterday!!!!!




Fortunately, I noticed the mistake before swiping my card... £11.80!

30k for a 1990 Mahindra jeep. You would be lucky to get 3 for it.

And it isn’t a royal flush, more like four aces.

£5,500 for a Mk3 Chopper (the modernized one that nobody wants). You would be luck to get half that for a Mk1.

Ah yeah, but it's still in the original, unopened box.
Just to prove, the box is opened so you can peer inside.

And a certificate which clearly shows it was made in 2004.
I suspect they mean it’s never been removed from the box.

A Brompton B75 with an AI generated decription - so an old (ish) bike for 50% more than you can buy a brand-new A-line
