Just realised, it really was a bargain at £2.99 for the teapot, cups and saucers when the teapot alone is worth £12. Might have to go back, I can always mend/replace the box!0

OMG is there a typhoon cake stands??!!
Please please please can someone pick me up one -and I will of course drop you the money any way you please ( paypal/ cash/ stamps/ chq bank transfer)
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
I'm not sure if the cake stand was by Typhoon, it looked more like the pink Rosanna plate set, so maybe it was Rosanna too (although Rosanna stuff usually comes in a nice box - this was just a cake stand, no box). That's probably no help, sorry!Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21

Is it with CUPS & SAUCERS (4 or 6 ?)
OR as you originally posted "* lovely teapot, cup and saucer set in a presentation box,"
only if it's the latter the teapot is likely to be the 2 cup size at £7
Here >>> http://www.typhoonhousewares.com/TyphoonSite/product//57240.htm
rather than the other £12 one - 6 cup size / 1250ml
as previously posted >>> http://www.typhoonhousewares.com/TyphoonSite/product//57260.htm
Still quite a bargain by the looks of it !There are 10 types of people in the world. ‹(•¿•)›(11)A104.28S94.98O112.46N86.73D101.02(12)J130.63F126.76M134.38A200.98M156.30J95.56J102.85A175.93

Ah yes, it will be the two-cup version then. It came with two cups and two saucers, like a tea for two set. But still a great deal like you say.Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21

Thanks pudding. No blue in my local store, shame as I would have snapped one up. I really like the Rosanna stuff too and have bought a few different sets for Christmas presents.Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21
