Soooo, if I wanted some hastily-painted glass birds to hang from my oh-so-tasteful tree, I could choose six for

£12.99 from amazon

£15 from cox and cox

or

wait for it

£24.95 from pedlars

Hmmmmmmm, let me think. Hmm

I particularly love the way the pedlars birds look faintly embarrassed to be there. Grin

BeerTricks - would you care to start a thread on MN austerity posting?, being as its your baby, as it were Grin

Dammit this thread is faaaaar to long to read now but I remember laughing at this lot last time round and quite fancy doing it again. Any highlight I should be aware of? (although I got as far as the nativity teabags and that's made my day!) (I might get some!)

taffetacat · 26/11/2010 18:10

OK stranded, highlights include

fox cube - nuff said

easel - needs to lean against something

strandedatseasonsgreetings · 26/11/2010 18:18

OMG I am absolutely Shock at the price of the "leaning easel"!!!!!!!

And why is there a fake fox tail attached to that cube???

Sorry I am sure that has all been said already but thanks for sharing.

What scares me is that people must actually buy this Stuff. At those prices.

They must be laughing all the way to the bank.

MrsChemist · 26/11/2010 18:26

I bet it's a Pedlars conspiracy. They are sick of us mocking their prices so have broken MN so we can't use pound signs.

Or maybe us mocking their prices comes up first on google, and they are scared their customers will find out they are taking them for a ride.

Pedlars have bought the internet. You can buy a vintage version - just for looking at, not playing with - for a squillion gazillion pounds.

So it's a fox hunting tool then? Sod the dogs and guns, just send the box into a field.

Job done.

pmsl @ Pedlars owned vintage Internet

Preggersplayspop · 26/11/2010 20:30

I just showed dh the fox pouffe and he thought the photo was digitally enhanced and that it's a spoof site! I wonder if they keep all the surplus stock in the castle. It must be fox pouffes a go go there.

Unprune · 27/11/2010 11:45

DH is very grumpy today. He says we are not entitled to feel outrage when presumably people want this crap at any price. I tried to aim for the humour angle (eg half an easel at seventeen times the price of a full easel) but he was having none of it.

dracschick · 27/11/2010 12:45

Im going to make some nativity t bags later ......anyone wanna order from me?

FreudianFoxSquishedByAPouffe · 27/11/2010 14:26

No fanks I can make some myself with paper and a stapler I reckon!

Unprune · 27/11/2010 14:29

Just remembered that DH worked out that the price difference between the two Bakelite clocks was 14,000% Grin

SuePurblybiltByElves · 27/11/2010 18:21

gillybean2 · 28/11/2010 14:37

BinkyB · 28/11/2010 15:16
