The female that runs the shop at the end of the row is even worse...she wanted $30 for a rusty Bengall that had a crack that ran from edge to spine and a hole completely thru the blade about 1/8" from the edge...when I explained that it wasn't even worth trying to restore, she said "why would you want to, its an antique and worth more as it is..its got the box (incorrect one) and everything!"
You can't argue with that type of logic..
