Mykesbass Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 C'mon, this is included so must bump the price up significantly: [color=#333333] "Teach yourself to play bass" starter book w/CD"[/color] Quote

GregBass Posted September 21, 2015 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
ribbetingfrog Posted September 21, 2015 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
roman_sub Posted September 21, 2015 Author Posted September 21, 2015 Third paragraph really makes it for me. My guess is that "we" are disgruntled parents. Quote
ribbetingfrog Posted September 21, 2015 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
tauzero Posted September 21, 2015 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
roman_sub Posted September 21, 2015 Author Posted September 21, 2015 73 years, assuming 2.5% inflation assumptions holds out in practice. Quote
Roger2611 Posted September 21, 2015 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
the boy Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) [quote name='GregBass' timestamp='1442829280' post='2869691'] Just as a point of order, can it really be very unique? Surely unique is an absolute - it can't be qualified? [/quote] Agreed. Edited September 22, 2015 by the boy Quote
