Crazy purchases.

Post by Dartfrog » Tue Apr 17, 2012 2:11 pm

Hello all, ever bought anything you know you are paying wildly over the odds for but it you just have to have it?
I saw a West German 1990 World Cup top in excellent condition and just had to have it, paid an obscene £135 for it.

Yesterday. Spur of the moment thing, was in the cave playing darts listening to Electric Feel and just about to head out to play sixes.

My mate had one at high school and i borrowed it to wear for PE, someone stole it afterwards, terrible.

welcome home frog.

ive paid lots out on comics over the years, though hopefully not over the odds.

this was an issue i had to make an exception for, £2.50 new, couple of weeks later it cost me £70

limited edition variant at the time of obhamas innaugaration. there are very few modern era comics worth owning and this is one. a must have for an anorak like me.

Hello Dicie have to say i find it the best footy top ever made.

Knots it's never paying over the odds if it is always going to increase in price, i have quite a few Smiths vinyl but good willing Saint Stephen Patrick Morrissey will not be leaving this earth anytime soon.

It is a thing of wonder that shirt.

I have the latest German away shirt. Back to the good old days of plain green.
