my dad wanted a banjolele for his birthday
we ended up on denmark street and got anally raped for a bloody 60 year old vintage one at about £450. the bloody things are about £30 new!

best gift? er....... for surprise and extravagance, the amazing headphones the ex sent me. for touchingness, the sparkly eyeliner and CD my friend sent me as a surprise.

They saw what they considered to be a pair of northern mugs and quickly changed the price tag.
Sorry to be the etc.

I agree
My Banlolele is nearly 80 years old, in perfect nick, in its original case with its original drum tightening key, bridge and accessories and its still only worth about £350.

so i suspect they knew that full well
