Reck B Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 You could be living the dream, snuggled up next to those spherical candles in this 4 bedder in Exminster, Devon. Sold in September 2000 for £155,000 Sold in February 2006 for £289,000 Yours in November 2010 for £355,000 You're tempted, aren't you? No? But they've also got a green twisty thing in a vase, that alone must be worth £200k of HPI over 10 years, surely? Post 'em up when you find 'em - this thread could go stratospheric. (or die on it's ar5e) Quote
MrFlibble Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 Looks dreamy, where do I sign? If would take me a lot longer that 10 years to save the extra £200k this Joker thinks he can conjure it up by simply owning a pile of bricks over the same period. The sad thing is, so far this ponzi has worked, but the pool of greater fools is fast diminishing... Quote

Roost Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 These twigs are just excessive, I would put money on them having christmas tree lights in there too... BIG PRICE TAG, BIG TWIGS Quote
Si1 Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 http://www.rightmove...y-31467392.html You can barely make them out, but they are there. (Faraway twigs; too small. Classic 'schoolboy errors' from the vendor and EA's photographer, which will cost them a pretty penny.) and that triangular table is just aching for twigs! I think that is what you call bad twing shui... Quote

DeepLurker Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 All those houses scare me - they look so impersonal - no family photos, coats on wall, and all the other junk that says "this is actually a home". Quote

guitarman001 Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 This thread is SO funny Did anybody (such as Allsop, EAs) ever actually say something about twigs in a vase lol??? Quote
Bloo Loo Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 Here, I think they have taken the concept too far: dunno about too far, thats not just Twigs in a vase, thats M&S Twigs in a vase. Quote
Bloo Loo Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 outgrew the vase. yeah, but the fresh bread in the microwave smells great. Quote

SarahBell Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 I keep getting the urge to set up facebook groups about this sort of thing... but suspect some people might not see it as taking the pee. Quote
