I've just checked and most of the properties in London now are at 20K, and the Italian ones are at 10-12K. Those are the exact properties Choice have been teasing me with their 8K rate, but when the time window approaches, they suddenly just go up in price.

Is it a fair business practice? Does it look like a devaluation?
In addition, there are no longer 20K Manhattan properties, only 25K.
