Havnt you called your own integrity or intelligence into question by posting this thread and telling everyone you paid over $50 for a standard issue 2012 Koala? Sure the 2009 was an example of a koala/kook that was closer to the value you paid only... No-one likes getting fleeced so i dont blame you not liking me telling you so, im sure the cognitive dissonance isnt an easy thing to live with. Not really sure what sort of repsonses you were expecting? Better luck next time. 1for1
"Cognitive dissonance"? What the?... If I was so insecure about "getting fleeced" do you think I'd be telling people about it in the first place? Perhaps I saw my original post more as a genuine query about when premiums hit such a level. Some forum members addressed that issue, such as Byron or Trew. I had no problems with other people telling me it was exorbitant, but I wasn't expecting personal attacks on my integrity from spivs who claim to have expertise because they flog off whatever silver, tawdry postcards and miscellaneous paraphenalia they can get their hands on. Yep, like you said, better luck next time.
