[emoji848] I'll honestly never get my head around anyone doing that. No-one is taking pleasure - but it's clear that certain posters need a break from that thread. I know I said [mention=56587] Elixir[/mention] but Bob Mahelp is another who seems to lose it at times there. I've stepped back myself sometimes because I know it's just not worth getting stressed about a thread on a football forum.

SlipperyP Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 @oaksoft I'll tag you as I'm no shitebag You've some nerve to post about anyone on the Covid thread. As one of the 'main players' you've been nothing but an arse with your condescending posts ever since you entered the 'theatre'. Have fucking good HARD look at yourself. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least when it's the last piece you will get some enjoyment out of it. When it's the first, you've basically just pissed the money up against the wall. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Christ, the number of times I've had elderly woman moaning at me because we didn't stand and complete any second-hand jigsaw before we sold it. Aye, I'll sack off getting through a few hundred bags of clothes to do a jigsaw we'll end up selling for £3 I used to take them home and count them until I realised that "1000 pieces" is a rough estimate and not an exact figure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always knew that, one day, somebody would admit to having sexual fantasies about me. I'll admit, I imagined they'd have more vagina, but you take what you can get in this world. 1 minute ago, Alert Mongoose said: The f**k do you work? The British Heart Foundation Morningside branch? £3 was pretty standard for a used thousand piece jigsaw when I worked for the BHF. They give you a price guide that you're not supposed deviate from. No idea what their prices are like now, but it used to be one-third of the RRP for books, so there were regular tantrums when someone would realise that we were selling (or, rather, not selling) hardbacks for £6+. Wish I'd kept a copy of that price guide; some of it was mental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, the complete incoherence of some charity shops' pricing strategy is the main reason I'll rarely pass one by if I've got time to spare....in the last month I picked up the complete Friday Night Dinner box set for a fiver and the Frasier one for I think seven quid. By the same token, the shop selling the latter was also selling second hand Primark T-shirts for a fiver 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a lot more professional than in decades gone by though; some bargains you could get back when some were like glorified jumble sales.
