Is it just me........£43 million!!
« on: 12 November 2010, 12:45:07 »

that thinks this shows how mad the world is and how mankind has got it's priorities wrong?

This

sold for £43 million yesterday.  £43m for an old vase; yes I know a very rare vase, but is any bit of pottery worth £43m?

I love anything old and historical, and would pay a million pounds for a steam railway engine that could give pleasure to many being pulled along in coaches behind.  But a vase for £43,000,000 (I have to keep on typing it as I may believe it eventually!! :D :D :D)

Before anyone starts about the wicked capitalist system, let's also add it was apparently bought by someone from......................................the mainland of China!!! ::) ::) ::) ::)

What do you all think?

Is it madness, or just mankind admiring and valuing beauty? :-/ :-/ :-/

Absolutely obscene amount of money for that vase, unless of course... it was yours...  ;)

I think it went cheap. I was going to bid myself but I got side-tracked by a mansion I was viewing.
