Real Estate / How are Poland's properties priced? [51]

Nope, not idiotic......there was a whole district in Detroit were there are dozens of fine detached houses, all empty, slowly decaying, in an area no-one wanted to live.....so I've no doubt the bank, thought it a good way to get publicity to off load a house for $1 just to get in the news etc.......its true value was more.....but the reckon....only worth 10-20K dollars!

Its all about location, location, location......plus in a hugely negative market and over supply.....the buyer is king....called capitalism!

Law / DELL shifting ops from Ire to PL [30]

Yes, Dell has been in Ireland for 16 yrs, its just the end of this part of the economic cycle, the Irish priced themselves out of the market and at the worst possible time....a global recession .....nothing new there!

The wages lost to Limerick/Irish economy directly is around E140 millions.

It would be interesting to know what the wages are at the new Polish plants?

Just remember Dell will remain in Poland until they move to the next new EU low cost base....you have been warned, enjoy the work whilst you can!

Remember......all is fair in love and war.......and business too!!!

UK, Ireland / Posting from UK to Poland....not good! [53]

I sent a small package to Warsaw from London on the 1st May...it hasn't arrived yet, am I to assume its been lost or worse stolen? It was sent standard rate, not insured or of high value.

Which end of the postal services has the worst reputation, UK or Poland?

Experiences and comments welcomed.

SIGNED One pissed off postal services user.

UK, Ireland / EXCHANGE RATES BETWEEN POLISH ZLOTY AND BRITISH POUND [73]

Yes, Neil if it continues, it will seriously dampen Polish competitiveness, especially if it has also appreciated against the Euro.......UK pound has lost 10% this year against the Euro in 1 year too, so it appears similar to the loss against the zloty.

It appears to be more a weakness in UK pound than strength of either Euro or zloty.

News / 10,000 ISRAELIS READY TO CLAIM FOR POLISH CITIZENSHIP AND POLISH LAND! [628]

I am not justifiying what they did for one instant.

But the men who fought for freedom of the nation state...were branded terrorists too....so no one is allowed to fight to over throw their occupiers/oppressors?

this is the sort of emotive crap that countless psychos used to justify murder.

Your words........they are emotive....who are you attacking with your vitriol, me or those who carried out the said attacks?

Must be easy (although boring) to live in a black and white world.

So its partly right to steal.....which part...Mr 40 shades of grey?

So how many other ethnicities were part of the Final Solution........as opposed whole nations destroyed in the general mayhem and carnage of WWII?
