Here it goes again

Well, my auction guy set those prices. Methinks it's a bit ambitious too, so I do agree with that. There's a premium there definitely, but I certainly am not of the mind to expect anything. I have to say though: it's a bit of a "what the market will bear" situation. For instance, my last set of auctions saw two of my instruments being sold abroad for way more than double what I felt they'd normally be worth. I'm generally a reasonably modest guy who doesn't let "stardom get to my head", but if people want to pay for that stuff as such, I'm certainly not going to stop them.

Keeping it real,
JMJ
 
A instrument from the NIN farewell tour? Oh yeah. There is an über-fan out there that has already considered buying it. For sure. Heck, those shredded pieces of stripped down Epiphone Les Pauls were going for hundreds of dollars just because Trent played them for half a song and smashed the crap out of it!!
