Poppy profit!

This has really niggled me all day!


After loosing my poppy time and time again i had a search on ebay for a poppy "brooch". I came across some beautiful Buckley Diamonte Poppy Brooches. The prices were from ?40 to ?150. Fair enough as they are 18k gold plated. Then i investigated further and found out these Brooches are Buckleys limited edition for the RBL priced at ?9.99 (all proceeds go to the RBL)!!!!! Is it just me or is buying one of these from Buckleys at ?9.99 and then selling them on ebay for ?40 plus just plain wrong! I sent messages to the various sellers asking if the proceeds would be going to the RBL and only 1 (selling at ?96) said that 10% would be donated!

    • We had one that projected stars and played lullabies. It was a soft toy bee with a hard plastic back. I know we used it but can’t recall how effective it was.  What was brilliant was the Lulla sleep doll which has a heart beat sound. That was a critical sleep aid for the first couple of years. 
    • Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.
    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.
