$5600.

I was off on the live auction Fox vest by $1000. I figured it was going to end at a flat $30,000.

Big money gets passed around pre-season. People gotta have it, whatever "it" may be to them, for their hero pics this spring.

That penny is U.S. legal tender! I stand by my quote. A penny saved is a penny spent! My 1cent worth opinion.

at 3427 now, with less than 24hr remaining. I bet there are some folks keeping their cards close and biding their time.

It will be interesting to see the last second bids and how many new bidders come in at the end. I find it surprising that an experienced seller neglected to put the word "trumpet" or "yelper" in the EBay title. There are probably interested buyers who will never see the listing because of this oversight.

Supply/demand

Also, money is subjective. To some people that's a month or more income.

Others, it may be a days income or less.

Yeah, I almost nailed it. I would love to have one for sure. I sure ain't going to put down on whoever bought it. I believe it is a part of our history, and there's only so many of them around. All in what you like.

Have a good one and May God bless y'all, Bo

Supply and demand is alive and well.

Not sure..........but, I don't think the good reverend is making them anymore.

Good to see a quality call from a quality human being go for good money.  Rev. Farmer is the most highly regarded in the business of trumpet building.  The selling price reflects that.

Absolutely D!  I bid for a bit but just couldn't justify continuing once it got to a certain $ amount.

Wish the good Rev. could get some of that money.

If you're hoping for a bidding war, definitely. If you're wanting to set a high buy it now price, I would think some of the turkey groups on Facebook would get the most exposure.
