GregBass Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Just as a point of order, can it really be very unique? Surely unique is an absolute - it can't be qualified? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ribbetingfrog Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Having paid £499 for my German made Vampyre sn5, I don't think an extra £2500 for this is unreasonable in the slightest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ribbetingfrog Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 "the lack of a buyer's market in no way decreases the value" they say! Well... My understanding of economics whilst quite basic would lead me to question this 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 "Similar guitars may have sold for far less, but we are not looking for a quick sell.". Eventually, inflation will catch up with that price. At 2.5% compounded, how many years will it take to get to 600%? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman_sub Posted September 21, 2015 Author Share Posted September 21, 2015 73 years, assuming 2.5% inflation assumptions holds out in practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger2611 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 At least they are being realistic about not needing a quick sale, I imagine if they hang on to it for say....I don't know 200 years or so or until all the wood has run out and all guitars are made of plastic then maybe it will be worth their asking price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
