The "Why on earth did I buy that?" Thread.
The title says it all
I thought it would be interesting to have a thread where everyone posts their blunders
Can be a pot from any time during your collecting.
I'll pot mine, once I think of the best (worst) example

Well I've been thought my old pictures and I think I've found "it"

Oh, so many mistakes
but most I'm happy to live with. The worst in terms of waste of money and hating the sight of them, has to be this pair of vases of Belquim Art Pottery:

Re: The "Why on earth did I buy that?" Thread.
I have had to numerous to mention " why did I buy that's", but I try and get rid as quick as possible , car boot or chuck them out , we all do it to a certain extent not just with pottery / glass etc , I have clothes I haven't worn since they were bought , but that's probably because I never get out
