If you sell them, can you buy them back?

Yes. I've accidently sold my escalator once . . .I think it was sold for . . . 200k? If I can recall and yes I had to buy it back for full price :lol: silly me. I like the escalator but the other two are not worth the money.

I'm thinking about selling all three and buying them back; just to use up some money. I have WAY too much.

What do you think about them?

I have never seen the point of them other than having them as monuments saying "I can afford them." They are in my opinion just not very great looking and are not really doing anything for your town. Maybe if I had seen the episodes where they are shown I would appreciate them for nostalgia and all that. Right now it's just cluttering people's towns.

Am I alone here?

Who is the man in your profile ?

heheh Just got done watching Marge Vs. The Monorail 30 seconds ago :P


I have the escalator but still not decided if I will get the others. I probably will since I am a completionist now.

That would be me. Probably the only one on here with themselves as an avatar. Is it against the rules? :p

I was going to use one of my pics from a geeky shoot I did, but also was unsure if its against the rules! Would be good to know!

I am currently building the magnifying glass, only one out of the three I want, mainly as I have room for it when I did my last 'whole town restructure' and it's pointed right at the tyre yard....
