More 'Vintage'......

Put anything here that's badly designed/made, failed, catastrophically exploded or just an epic fail in a general sort of way.

So, it seems even a cheapo DIY shed lantern, made in china and probably t=retailed for about a tenner is now 'vintage'.......

Cheap flimsy tin shite. You'd be insane to buy that

Haha, yes a blast from the past indeed! I remember those being on sale and even installing one for someone. They cost a tenner, well, £9.99 if I remember correctly and yes, they were a flimsy pile of shite. I spose in some ways it's probably 'ultra rare' these days as anyone who had one would have watched it rust off the wall years ago. It's certainly not worth what that seller wants for it!

Yup, you could buy that in Texas Homecare for a tenner when they were still in business too!
