80k on a horse that's nothing , how about 80k on a Koi carp - not by me but a faceless syndicate in the greed is good 1980s . Beautiful fish tho .
As I’m constantly reminded my role in work is ‘professional shopper’ it’s not unusual for me to spend £20k in a day all ‘unseen’ but that’s not really the same thing, it turns up and it works or it goes back - there’s little risk.
I bought a motorbike on eBay unseen and it was mint, a bought an MR2 and it was a complete wreck of a thing, wasn’t expensive, but I spent £500 trying to resurrect it but ended up selling it for £1000 less than I paid for it a few months later, I learned my lesson there and bought a Golf VR6 unseen, it was if anything worse, spent a fortune making it decent if not great and it rewared me by catching fire a 70mph and burning to he ground.
I’ll keep an eye open for any Volvos coming through work in that colour, one of the best descriptions ever!
