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!

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
