What saying really annoys you ?
The one I really hate appears on most TV antique auction type programmes like Flog it, where the person selling trotts out the line " as long as it goes to a good home". Someone has paid £500 for a china pot and they may live in a house full of naughty children who take delight in smashing their parents new china pots. You are bl**dy selling your items, not trying to find a new home for them.
