<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 61197, member: 360&quot;]I honestly had no choice. There is absolutely NO WAY I could afford one at what most of them go for around here (about $400-$700). Silver it might be, but it ain&#039;t THAT special! I&#039;ve purchased sterling silver pieces for PEANUTS in the past, and I wasn&#039;t about to stop now. </p><p><br /></p><p>I saw no reason to spend double or triple or even QUADRUPLE the price for something that isn&#039;t worth it, and which nobody else is ever going to buy, or use, anyway! </p><p><br /></p><p>Today I went into the shop and I saw the lady. By pure chance she had this for sale. We have some history together (I&#039;ve bought some stuff from her in the past, for my restoration-projects) so she knows who I am. That helped with the negotiations and slicing the price, literally, in half, to something I could justify...just! </p><p><br /></p><p>There was another silver case which was 15 dollars cheaper, but it wasn&#039;t the right size (too small), and therefore not worth considering. Another one was $20 more expensive, but the catch was broken, so it wouldn&#039;t close. Another was $40 more expensive and they didn&#039;t want to haggle. So this one was the one which won in the end![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
