Seeing as the price of the posters is the same price as housing plots and SE specifically said the NPC is there for people to voluntarily pay for the plot they got refunded, you really, actually, truly, are paying for the house. You just get a wall decoration in return as a thank you and apology.

Yes and no. Anyone with the gil can buy them so yeah, in that regard it's a gil sink and quite the flex. For people like me who were impacted by the bug, it's a little something to give us in way of apology for the screw up when we pay for the plot we got for free.
