Full size Tube map For sale.
 
Hi guys,
I have a Full size tube map for sale.
I would like 30 pounds for it.
It is not stolen but my mate who has a mate who works at a station, was
going to get rid of it but he gave it to my mate to give to me well i
ended up buying it.
Well i paid 20 pounds for it, it is in mint comdition. The only reason
im selling this is because, i want to add it towards my Website fund to
get a better provider.
I would not sell it otherwise.
These are quite hard to get hold of.
Please contact me at: lyons.3
@btopenworld.com
Thank you for looking
Cheers
James

a shop for a couple of quid?

If it's full size, does that mean you'd have to have somewhere the size
of zone six to actually store it in?

No, it probably folds up and would fit into Hyde Park

Then you were robbed! You could have bought one in the LT shop for
£5.95.... and there is really no difference!

I'd say your first idea was the correct one, 'cause if he has robbed you in
such a way then he's no mate.

No he got it from a station on the east end of the district line.
Im not naming the station as i dont want the staff to get in to
trouble.
This was from a district line station and was removed to be replaced
with a more up to date one.
You cant buy those ones for 5.99.
Ive still got it.
This is not a repelica for the public to buy but an ex station one.
It's hight is about 1 metre 10
Ok
Cheers
James
P.S i was not trying to rip you guys off and i do know the station he
got it from because i asked the person who my mate got it from to
comfirm it.
P.P.S i think my price was fair but if i'm wrong dont hang me.

"Full-Sized"????
Do you mean proportioned 1:1 ? 1 meter of map per meter of land.

I have a map of the United States. It's actual size. I live at E-5.
I like to stick my head out my window and smile for a satellite
picture.

I suspect he means quad royal.

Speaking as a repographer, "full size" and "1:1 scale" are not synonymous.

How's that pronounced? Is it "Rep-og-rapher" or "Ree-po-grapher"?

TIA

The last. Stress on the second syllable.
