    No. I'd never consider buying that.
    It's simply too expensive. If I had those kinds of funds available, I'd be doing some serious renovations!

    Would I want the Iron Throne in my house, even if it was just a replica? Of course. It'd go great with my swords and armor. Hell, I'd probably reconfiguring a room or two around it.

    Am I willing to pay $30,000 for, well, anything? No, no I am not.

    For wasting that much money, i feel like i could assemble one of the ultimate nerd collections and have the masses bow to my awesomeness. And it looks so fake and cheesy that I would be embarrassed to have it in my house.

    Let's say i have the money for it and I don't need it because i'd be stupendously rich...

    Yes.

    I'd even let some contractor build me a throneroom. One difference, It'd be my boardroom and every division (let's say 7 divisions would be enough in my company) I would call a kingdom. and it would be awesome (I'd also have the crown made and name my PA Hand )

    Not "accepting" the iron price is a silly phrase. You don't get to accept or refuse the iron price.

    So, yeah. If I were a stinky Lannister, I'd buy that.

    Well first of all, I'm thinking that probably isn't made from metal, and likely isn't particularly sharp. But, if you could actually get a more...shall we say, true to life version, it would basically be to communicate that you do not screw around. I'm imagining a lawyer somewhere having one in a room he meets with the opposition in.

    If money were no issue, I'd buy 8 and place them around a huge dinning room table, then have dinner with friends more often. Maybe have SoIaF Parties...

    In all realistic likelihood, I'd never even consider spending that kind of money, but it would be hilarious to have not one, but EIGHT of the damn things in one room. Oh God, the tacky. So much tacky. The majesty!

    I would not. If I found it on the street, or won it in some sort of gambling wager I'd likely hold onto it...

    However I too, favor the Iron price.

    Ideally, I'd have the shattered swords of my foes, and smith them together to forge my own.

    $30k for a fiberglass set prop? No way is that worth that cost. Its probably around $50 of raw materials. The rest would be work, and at that cost they are claiming allot of man hours. It's not like it can even justify a huge markup when they are made to order...

    Why eight and not seven? Seven is a more fitting number...

    The rest of the room would need to be made equally tacky. Possibly a round table. Maybe some banners cover the walls and windows. A bear/tiger carpet. Some kind of chandelier.
