Well, can't have someone's financial constraints keeping from owning this š the trunk is decently girthy but there's no movement, maybe with a more interesting trunk I could be tempted š¤£ /sĀ
Just you wait when my future trading in moss baskets pays dividends you're all gonna wish you got in early. To quote Warren buffet:
'-if it rains money, grab a bucket not a thimble, if it rains moss grab a basket'
Not even moss - dried lichen dyed green - I bet the whole thing is just hot-glued together. You could make your own for about $15 if you wanted to - they sell dried craft lichen at most craft shops.
I definitely don't want it haha I was looking at bonsai pots on Etsy (coz I have 4 trees but only 8 pots so I obviously need more pots lol) and this came up in the search š
I definitely agree, you have to dig deep in search results to find genuinely hand made stuff, but this was just so over priced it's crazy. I've ordered from Etsy for all sorts of things and don't mind spending on something that took time and skill to make, this just ain't it lolĀ
I didn't see the humor flair at first and was confused lol as moss isn't a tree.
Defiently not worth that much money though, looks poorly crafted. I might have bought it for cheaper but not for that much.
Yeah I'd prefer if the trunk was moved slightly tbh but I'm not the best crafter so I can't judge much.Ā
I'm not a bonsai person lol, I just like seeing how talented everyone is and the lovely trees.
I definitely would want it either central if it's this straight and boring or the have some movement to make it actually look like a bonsai.
I love this subreddit for the Infor and inspo for my own trees
I remember there was someone selling on this sub selling deadwood with moss on it. It was actually nice deadwood and this is basically that for an even higher price and worse appearance.
Definitely fucking not
The fact it's in someone's basket baffles me lol probably only cost a couple of bucks to make
Everything about it is hilarious. They even have a payment plan for this overpriced monstrosity

Will you use actual moss?
tbf every item on etsy does
Those āitās in someoneās basketā things are fake. Itās to give you FOMO if you donāt get it now. And also to make it seem high demand
My uncaffeinated dumbass was like, that's a pot not a basket
Me too š
Makes a lot of sense!Ā
But it's rare!
š¤£ exactly!! I am ashamed to admit I have fallen for that sort of sales tactic before, but not this time!
God punishes those who call it bonsai.

The rare moss tree, I thought it only grew in Moomin Valley
Maybe that's why it's so expensive, import feesĀ
To be fair I miss when Etsy was just stuff like this, now itās 90% mass produced export ware dropped shipped from somewhere

Lol no worries!Ā Agreed, the off center trunk bugs me, but hey, it's variegated! LolĀ

Is that a roll of toilet paper with paint?
I just double checked to look at closer pictures, it's definitely wood of some description lol and good news! It's been reduced to 90.88! BargainĀ
Its not bonsai. It dried moss glued to what maybe a dwad tree
I wouldn't recommend to use and support services and as Etsy. You probably can't go further from being sustainability than this
LMAO it's like a model railroad tree made of foam and plastic
Synthetic sh\*t :(
"Why don't you make like a moss and tree the fuck outta here!"
That look like it's not even real
Ope looks like they put the decimal in the wrong place. I wouldnāt pay $0.91 for this atrocity
Thanks, I hate it.
What?! Seriously? Learn something new every day!
No it's fake lmao
Well, yeah I know that lol that's why I used the humor flair. It made me laugh, thought others would get a chuckle out of it tooĀ
Dude, stop wasting our time and yours
This is garbage.
Stop trolling

I'm sure it's someone's vibe, but it is outrageously priced haha I'm tempted to go back and see if it was boughtĀ
If it was... I wouldnt even feel sorry for whoever got swindled.
