Kidding right?

Browsing through bedroom furniture came across an ad for a wardrobe, one of those old brown things that sell in op shops for about $10..........seller had listed it as Antique Collectable.

Honest?

Do people really collect wardrobes?

Where on earth do they put them?

I was reading that at the moment, things like antiques and stamps etc are out of favour.

I would imagine there would be a market for a good solid wood, genuine period wardrobe but for other cheaper types.. as always, the price has to be in line.

It reminds me of a couch I saw on a facebook page. It was one of those cheap ones with the PVC leather, which I might add was almost totally peeled off the whole couch. Ready for the hard rubbish collection in my book. They wanted $100 for it!

Tell them they're dreaming.

Oh and PS-You doubter. Of course it's a collectible. LOL

You needn't laugh. A man not far from here used to collect tanks. That's right, war tanks. Lucky he had a large property!!!

Tanks? lol. Was he planning to form an army? It always interests me what people are into, I think If I were to be a collector it would be old dolls.

I've got one in the garage, it sits in the corner covering the hole in the wall where the entrance to Narnia is.
