Anyone wanna play monopoly? Got a neighbour who’s getting rid of a few sets…

  1. That looks like someone’s had a whole collection thrown out

  2. I kind of need to know what actually happened here…

  3. Guessing they’re probably damaged beyond use by the weather but it feels like you could make a few quid from any complete monopoly sets. I zoomed in and can see the ‘world football stars’ monopoly set that goes for £23 on Amazon, there’s also an Elf version there too going for £28 on Amazon (I think there’s at least four that I can see too).

    OP, I’d go for a rummage if you fancied making yourself a few quid! (Or tell me where this is and I’ll go for a rummage!)

  4. I actually collect monopoly boards.

    I’d be swimming in this like Scrooge McDuck in coins.

  5. They have all of that version of game in the world. If only there was a word for that

  6. Juat for reference, I have no idea what’s going on. I just walked past this house and it looks abandoned.

  7. Maybe they’ve bought up all of the stock in order to stamp out any competition. I think there’s a word for that but I can’t remember what it is.

  8. Tens of thousand of hours of family arguments sitting there going to waste!

  9. He’s clearly been playing meta-monopoly, where the aim is to have a monopoly on monopoly sets.

  10. Maybe he realised someone else was also collecting them and he no longer had a monopoly on the resale market

  11. Looks like they were trying to have an over-abundance of ownership of the game. Almost like an oligopoly.

  12. Grab us a Star Wars or Marvel one of its sealed and I’ll pay the postage. Cheers.

  13. Aside from the obvious weirdness, you’ve got to be a complete cretin to think this acceptable. There’s potentially hundreds of pounds just fly tipped and now damaged and worth considerably less.

  14. I’d be so tempted to wallpaper an entire room in monopoly 500s

  15. My guess is someone has cleared out a warehouse/storage unit of unsold stock and flytipped everything at this abandoned house? Either that or a hoarder/collector/reseller lived at this house and has died or been sent to a home.

    The latter doesn’t seem so likely to me though as whoever would do that would be a monumental moron to not just give them to charity, try to sell them or at the very least put it all in a skip.
