Rampent Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 They are probably so expensive because everyone chucked them away in the 1990's. I suppose they have to come back at some point! Never, that colour scheme is just plain wranking gross. The OP is having a laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert_Baehr Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Perhaps some people bought avocado suites because they matched their teeth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj.scuba Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Lol remember having that colour bathroom as a kid in the early 80s. Went to a mates house a couple of years back and they had a turquoise (yes, turquoise) bathroom suite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree, no I'm not having a laugh..totally serious, it's for my parents who are stuck in a time warp. £265 for a green un when they could buy a perfectly nice white one from wickes for £50....thats what happens when you get to 80 years old!

Understand. Take 'em to a 3D film with lots of colours. And keep this mantra going 'Oh that nice white looks nice' 500 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just a total rip off, and to think The Star is garbage too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucario1234 Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 brokenbog.com try your insurance company - they'll be able to source one new Some manufacturers are able to supply a refiring Thanks for this, I have sent them e mail. My parents bathroom is 1950's style so they look the most likely to be able to help than the others I have looked at. I don't think insurance would be likely to help as their toilet is just leaking and as the toilet has been in the house for over 50 years, I think they might class it as wear and tear!

Where is it leaking from? It's highly unlikely any of the avocado bits need replacing if it's just a leak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I just hope the shade of colour is right. Failing that, install those lights they have in city centre toilets that make everything kinda glow. They will be none the wiser.
