Did Granville give you the money first? I think Granville has to give you the money first, I'm not certain though.
I also think it depends on your alignment. Good people have to pay the 50 and evil people just have to pay 25.
It's been a while since I've done this so I could be wrong. There's another thread about this quest somewhere in the forums with more info.

I've tested this and told people on this site and noone believes me :/
Granville has to say he'll pay 50 crowns and Annie will ask for 25 crowns. You tell Granville that Annie asked for 50 crowns, thus lying to him and showing your true colors. Then you pay Annie the 25, which gives you the right statue and 25 extra crowns since Granville gives you 50 crowns as repayment.
It is NOT because of your alignment. I was good aligned worshipping a good aligned god when I did this.

You dont get THEIR money to pay her. You just lie to them so that Granville thinks she wants 50 crowns. Then you pay her with YOUR money and he reimburses you after he gets the statue. But since you lied and he thinks you paid 50 crowns instead of 25, he gives you 50 back. Which is a tidy 25 crown profit and you showing your true colors by being a dirty liar

Strange... I am good aligned and worshipping Gapp, similiar to blah, I gave Annie 25 crowns for the statue and Granville will not accept it when i "give" it to him, he puts it down and says "Eh? Oi don't need that!" Did you blah, have this same problem on giving Granville the statue or did he accept it happily? Also was yours an ugly looking statue with the following description: "This is a rather grotesque looking ceramic statue. It looks something like a vulture with an over-exaggerated... well... let's not go into which part of it is over-exaggerated. It's surprisingly heavy, and very ugly."? Or did you have no such problems?

I must be dense, because I'm still not getting the syntax. (Plus "give money" gave her *all* my money -- oops.)

I really want this quest to be sorted out from point A to the last point. This is not working. There must be some missing part. I want exact commands written down. When I did this I gave Annie 25 crowns with the syntax 'give annie 25 crowns'. She then gave me a statue which turned out to be fake.
How do I persuade Granville in order to get his money? How do I persuade Annie in order to give me the right statue?
Please help me before I go nutz on this one!

It seems the point of the quest is to pay 25 Crowns for an item Granville will give you 50 Crowns for. Many have done this and got the quest. However, others report that paying 25 Crowns gets them the fake. I can only tell you that I did the quest as described on the site and gave 50 Crowns for the correct statue. I didn't make 25 Crowns but then I didn't need the money and I did get the quest. (and it didn't cost me anything to do ;D). Having done the quest the way I did, I can't comment on the outcome if I had paid the 25 Crowns. I always work on the premise that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush and go for a known outcome. Make your own choice based on the evidence so far. I can say that in my case, 50 Crowns got me the correct statue but I'm sure others will say that 25 Crowns got them the correct statue. You can go on paying 25 Crowns until it's cost you 500 Crowns and still you only have a fake statue .

So I should go about and 'give' 50 crowns to Annie?

> Annie Spindlewits says with a Lancrastian accent: Granville? That thievin' old beggar? Oi'd no sooner trust 'im than hang up me warts. Annie Spindlewits asks with a Lancrastian accent: Er, not that Oi'd be even remotely interested, but 'ow much would the old bugger be offering? Annie Spindlewits says with a Lancrastian accent: Anything less than twenty-five crowns, and Oi'll make 'im eat 'is boots, Oi will. Annie Spindlewits looks around and sighs sadly. Annie Spindlewits says with a Lancrastian accent: Oh, Oi'm kidding no-one. Oi need the money. Annie Spindlewits says with a Lancrastian accent: Tell you what, if you can get 'is money 'ere an' in me grubby paw, Oi'll give you the statue. But Oi won't part with it until Oi have the money right here! Now see if you can get the tight bugger to part with 'is money.
This is what i got when i payed 25 crowns and got 50. I also lost 25 crowns when she said:

I think the i need the money is a big part of the quest. But i could be wrong.

I think the important part of the above stuff is that she says that she needs the money and whatnot, and that you just have to wait for her to say that before you give her the money.

I've only really tried this by-the-book.
Succeeded with a good character by giving Annie 50 crowns, zero profit, as already established.
Succeeded with an evil character by giving Annie 25 crowns. (A neat little message about "How deliciously evil!")
Haven't tried vice versa, but the showing your true colours part seem accurate at least =)
