I know a lot of people don’t like coated strings or the colours.
I guess I am the exception in liking them.

I think your overlooking an important factor. Deals are great and I like deals.
But because I score one luckily, should I maintain a lower value of an item that it actually worth more? A simple concept. Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay. A prime example is a relic fender. You don’t see historical genders going for $500. Deal or not, an item holds a value and truly for that item to maintain that value it needs to be sold at the best premium possible to repeat the cycle. A deal is an odd occurrence to be had where as selling something for what it is worth maintains a standard.

You have pretty expensive taste for a guy who's unemployed.

This thread has gone all OVER the place! 31 pages now, over 600 posts (sheesh @Serious Ganja! If I ever go back to work I’m going to have to appoint somebody to tend this place in my absence and keep the numbers flowing. Is that somebody you?, are you the chosen one?. How do they get the caramel inside the Caramilk bar?. And who’s monkey is on who’s back?. I just don’t know!.Sweet! Thanks for the reply, that's some info I needed!
With that off my chest, I have to share this. I've posted questions about these P/U's in the Schecter Club, started 2 threads of my own, & yes, did reach out to Nordstrand (@SoniaMara was very helpful). I couldn't quite get info I was looking for. Where do I find a direct, good answer from someone with experience? In a thread...about needing a break from TB!![]()
