Nice one.

Come on, be serious!

£3 from the boot sale would be about right.

And he's got a pair of Ditton 22s for £349!!!!!

The problem with greedy pricing is that it reflects across the whole used equipment market and prompts others to believe their lumps of 'old tat' are worth 'mucho dosh' and eventually all the useful bits of older gear get their prices pushed up alongside the junk! It's pissing me off, even the boot sale vendors are getting greedy these days.
