Over priced or rare find


It's a comment to the people that collect things and brag by saying: 'its rare", "it cost me $$$". I hear it all the time from people with enough disposable income to throw away, then I see them 2 weeks later and it's dead.
 
Haha, yes, fair point. I used to be really into high end audio, and had a great fondness for the folks that needed to have the latest and greatest ...... because I could then get last years greatest for 30 cents on the dollar ...... thank them very much LOL.
 
It's not really about the price point, it's more about the attitude. My real point was about how some fish should be left in the ocean. So many fish with the "rare" tag do not survive very long in captivity, that's what rare usually means.

If the person who bought this pair comes to this forum, I'd love a post. Then an update in a couple of months if they are still alive, yeah it's that likely they won't even last that long.
